It is still early on in the election, with 21 days of campaigning left to go and a lot that can change until election day comes, but for now, the Conservatives can feel more comfortable than they did before the election started as they have reversed the pre-election polling the Liberals used to hold over them.

Referendums on a political figure’s personality can make or break their chances at reelection.

It will be interesting to see in a new election, especially one called on such short notice, if newer parties like the PPC, Maverick, and the True North Party (recently started by Derek Sloan) will be able to break through due to the frustration of Canadians and especially Westerners, or if more centre-right voters will still rally behind the CPC despite moving to the left.

The whole situation seems odd to political observers, especially those who had been convinced Trudeau would be dropping the writ on a new election on Sunday. Many now don’t know if the departure of these three Liberals indicates an election is now coming sooner or if this will delay an election call until later in August or even early September.
