The Liberals could win a majority with just 42% of the vote—even while getting fewer votes than the Conservatives.

No matter who's ahead, this kind of distortion undermines democracy.

The Liberal Party is projected to win 178 seats with 42.3% of the vote, despite trailing the Conservatives, who are projected to win 144 seats with 44.3%. The Bloc Québécois is forecasted at 13 seats (3.8%), the NDP at 7 seats (5.7%), the Greens at 1 seat (1.7%), and the People’s Party at 0 seats (1.4%).
