See this election in your region
See how this election might turn out in the region where you live under different ways of voting. We look not just at your current riding, but at the seats nearby as well, typically all the seats in a city or geographic region of a province. The figures below show, for each system, what electoral district your current riding sits in, as well as the results in other districts in the same region.
What this simulation assumes
- No candidates are named yet, and no date is set. Each party’s line is a placeholder until nominations close.
- The election is on the 2026 map of 56 districts. Chéticamp-Margarees-Pleasant Bay is new, carved out of Inverness; every other district is as it was in 2024.
- Each district starts from Northern Vibe’s own projected vote there, at that district’s 2024 turnout. For Inverness and Chéticamp-Margarees-Pleasant Bay, the 2024 count is split by polling station, as Northern Vibe splits it.
- Where that would elect a different party than Northern Vibe’s seat projection, just enough votes are moved to the projected winner to put it one point ahead. A district or two are close races by construction, not by measurement.
- Northern Vibe’s average across simulations is not a whole number, so it is rounded to whole seats, and each seat goes to the district where Northern Vibe gives that party its best chance. In a district or two that is a party Northern Vibe rates as less likely than another.
- Independents stand where Northern Vibe projects them, district by district. The rest of the polling average’s “Others” line goes to other parties.
- Turnout is held at each district’s 2024 level. The adjustment moves votes between parties but never changes how many were cast.
- Chéticamp-Margarees-Pleasant Bay held a by-election in 2026. As in Northern Vibe’s model, its turnout is not used: a by-election’s is not a general election’s.
- The ranked counts (AV and STV) use an estimated table of second preferences, not a measured one: no Nova Scotia poll asks for a second choice.
