Alison CreeksideLiberals have come in 4th in this Nanaimo-Ladysmith riding held by NDP incumbent Lisa Marie Barron in the last 3 elections, yet SmartVoting has the Cons inexplicably in the lead and is calling for a strategic vote for the Libs to beat the Cons. 👀 6 out of 7 seats on Vancouver Island are held by the NDP.

Alison CreeksideSmartVoting, the strategic voting election site, says to strategically vote Liberal in Cowichan—Malahat—Langford in BC, even though the NDP incumbent Alistair MacGregor has held the riding handily since 2015 and the Liberals usually come 3rd or 4th in that riding.
