New local polls from Leadnow
Hi Canadianpolicialwatcher, I don't have time to update the page but we just released 4 updated riding polls here: http://www.votetogether.ca/pages/localpolls/ Also, you seem to know about every local poll that shows up, and I'd love to know how you seem to find them so fast. Feel free to email me at matthew [at] leadnow.ca if you'd like. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.23.140.57 (talk) 00:03, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Hi, I saw that a few days ago and looked into it! It's actually numbers from a projection done for the Toronto Star by Vox Pop Labs. Must have been mistaken for a poll by the media source. canadianpoliticalwatcher (talk) 18:34, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

Parm Gill
Hi there, I was just wondering if you can remember what the source was for this edit you made to the Parm Gill article about him seeking a provincial nomination. I know it was a couple of weeks ago, but someone added a fact tag to it today, and I've been searching google and no matter what combination of words I put in the search box, I'm not finding an article. I seen a couple of pages that mention him as a possible candidate, but nothing about him making an announcement on October 29. If you don't recall, it's no big deal, I'll keep checking, the source must be out there somewhere. Cmr08 (talk) 02:11, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

Conservative leadership map
Hi, looks like I was making a map at the same time as you (just to put on Twitter), and I wanted to compare with your map to see if I made any errors, but I found a couple of errors that you made. Sarnia-Lambton was won by Scheer (you have it as going for Bernier) and Hamilton Centre was won by Chong (you have it for O'Toole). -- Earl Andrew - talk 02:26, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

Draft:List of candidates by riding for the 43rd Canadian federal election
I know that CPC rules automatically acclaimed almost every MP they had last November, but that's nearly two years before the election. If they haven't stated somewhere that they intend to run again I've been attaching a footnote that more accurately reflects their status as presumptive candidates rather than declared ones. Think of them as vaporware at this point. G. Timothy Walton (talk) 15:05, 20 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Good work finding lots of candidates' announcements.
