I tested out a new variable this time around: the number of campaign stops taken by #pei major-party leaders. A bonus ranging between 1% and 5% was given for every 10 visits made in each district.

This addition wasn't officially incorporated into my model – and it didn't change the result anywhere – but I'll be watching how well it does, and whether it can call more races correctly when compared to my main forecast.

But using the riding-by-riding (along with some precinct-level) numbers from @kylejhutton which I have good reason to believe – and strongly suspect – are more accurate than mine, would yield a G→L flip in O'Leary-Inverness as well as a G→C flip in Mermaid-Stratford.

On that note, the lives of a brilliant man and a wonderful young boy were cut short last Friday.
