The Leader Gets 80.4%.

The bigger they are, the harder they fall. 80.4% is big. 59% of the population turned out to vote, so the leader passes both tests. So, it's a good day for him.

However, he still faces two problems: there's no way our generic number will catch and surpass the Liberals, and secondly, his preferred prime minister metric has already sealed the deal for Carney — the leader is only twenty points behind and not closing in.

As a result, in the spring election, we will lose again, and Carney will get his majority. But it won't be all bad. Maybe if we get lucky, both Smith and our genius will elect domicile with the Orange Dipshit. I can dream, can't I?
