338 New Brunswick Projection - August 27, 2020: PC in majority territory, but...

Data has been sparse since the writ was drawn up in the New Brunswick legislature. A first poll was published earlier today by Narrative Research, but its field date spans from August 5 to 23, meaning the election was called two thirds into the poll. Léger has already signaled a New Brunswick poll was coming soon, and I am expecting more firms to be on the field shortly. (Here are the 338 Canadian pollster ratings.)

Hence, this preliminary projection should be taken with a grain of salt. It was calculated with little data, and the uncertainty is sky-high.




Nevertheless, here are the preliminary vote projections:



These levels of support yield the following seat projection. The threshold for a majority at the New Brunswick Legislative Assembly is 25 seats:


The PC currently has a 99% chance of winning the most seats with these numbers. But again, I expect all of these figures to change significantly in the coming days.
