Harper's Election Call

The call has just been made for October 14.

Harper denies he can expect a majority but that is exactly what they are looking for. If you cherry pick the latest Environics poll and the most recent Leger in Quebec (not a valid methodology) you can get them to a bare majority of 157.

How it turns out will depend on the campaign although at this moment TC expects a strengthened Conservative minority, perhaps much stronger than last time.

More to come.
