  • 2019 Election: Seat Clusters June to September Survey Results
    2019 Election: Seat Clusters June to September Survey Results August 2019 2 Overview In Canada, we count seats, not vote. Just like in American Presidential elections, you can win the popular vote and lose the election. In fact, that happened to Justin Trudeau’s father in 1979. The general way analysts address that is to look at seats by region. However, seats in the same region can move differently. This release tries to get closer to reality in the seat-by-seat contest. Our analysis combines two projects: • An analysis of federal election districts (which we call “seats”) that groups them into 14 clusters based on which parties are most competitive in those seats. Given the shifting dynamics of Canada’s party system, we have relied on only the results of the past two elections. However, to assess where the parties stand in these 14 seat clusters, we need a lot of data. • A merge of the most recent three national surveys that include federal votes, creating a unweighted total of 7,555 respondents and a weighted total of 4,900. In each of our surveys, we collect postal codes. That allows us to create a riding variable for almost all our respondents and to group their responses by the riding they are in. The deck below shows the output from the analysis. The key finding is that, with the NDP in the doldrums, the Liberals are in a strong position coming into the race. Not only have they cemented their hold on last elections core seats, they may be able to gain seats to offsets the losses they will likely experience in the Toronto and Vancouver suburbs and Atlantic Canada.

  • The Case for a Regional List Proportional Representation (PR) System for Ontario1
    The Case for a Regional List Proportional Representation (PR) System for Ontario1 Roberta Rice September 8, 2006 1 This voting system presentation has been funded in part by an academic fellowship from Fair Vote Ontario. It is one of four such projects funded by Fair Vote Ontario to assist the deliberations of the Ontario Citizens’ Assembly. However the work is solely the product of its author and does not carry the endorsement of Fair Vote Ontario. There is a growing sense among Ontarians that our electoral system is in need of significant reform. Democracies around the globe are undertaking reforms to their electoral systems in an attempt to improve voter choice and fairness of representation. One of the most popular voting system design choices among advanced Western democracies is proportional representation (PR). Proportional representation systems aim to deliver a close match between the percentage of votes obtained by political parties in elections and the percentage of seats they are awarded in legislative assemblies. Party list systems are by far the most common form of proportional representation; over 80% of the PR systems worldwide use some form of party list approach (PR Library, “Proportional Representation Voting Systems,” N.d.). The purpose of this research report is to develop a regional party list model that will fit the needs and interests of Ontarians. The questions I address in the paper are: What would a regional party list voting system look like for Ontario? How would it work? And lastly, is a list-PR system the best approach for the province? In an effort to answer these questions, the paper begins with an analysis of the basic principles underlying the list-PR system.

  • Ontario Citizens' Assembly a Mixed Member Proportional Model for All
    Ontario Citizens’ Assembly A Mixed Member Proportional model for all of Ontario By Brian M. Doody Lecturer, Political Science (University of Western Ontario) PhD Candidate, Political Science (Université de Montréal); LLB, BCL (McGill) This voting system presentation has been funded in part by an academic fellowship from Fair Vote Ontario. It is one of four such projects funded by Fair Vote Ontario to assist the deliberations of the Ontario Citizens’ Assembly. However, the work is solely the product of its author and does not carry the endorsement of Fair Vote Ontario. November 28, 2006 ABSTRACT This MMP model builds upon the Report of the Quebec Citizens’ Committee. It calculates proportionality on a province-wide basis and attributes seats to regional lists, achieving a relatively high degree of proportionality while adding only 27 list seats to the current 103-seat Legislature (20 per cent of 130 seats). It is simulated using results from the 1999 and 2003 elections, with 10 equal regions comprised of 13 seats each (10 or 11 single-member-district and 2 or 3 list seats), and maintains regional equality by attributing list seats to the parties’ highest averages using the per cent share of the vote (rather than total votes) in each region. The model also incorporates optional preferential voting in single-member districts to ensure that voters, not negotiators, decide who forms the government and the opposition. It obliges the parties to register their candidate selection rules to ensure that all nominations are transparent and democratic. It uses financing rules and vote thresholds to encourage province-wide party organizations as well as the creation of registered aboriginal parties for aboriginal candidates to run province-wide campaigns.
