Saskatchewan - Average

Here are the probabilities for the Saskatchewan party to win each seat based on a province-wide projection of the three publicly released polls. The raw data is SKP 51.7 NDP 34.0 LIB 9.2. This projects to a seat count of SKP 39 NDP 19. Ridings that are somewhat close are ranked 33-45, meaning if the numbers stay as they are the SKP will win a majority (needing 30). If they win any seats ranked below 45, it will be a very big win, while if they lose some than are less then 33 it could end up close. All that is not withstanding specific local effects like candidates or retirements, but that variance is factored into the probability calculation.

Saskatchewan - Regions - November 2, 2007

The Nov. 2 poll had regional splits for Regina and Saskatoon. http://www.canada.com/reginaleaderpost/news/story.html?id=657c0a81-40ea-40f6-a68e-e2031a3e8fd7

Regina:
Raw: SKP 41.8 NDP 45.8 LIB 6.1 OTH 2.2
Projects: SKP 4 NDP 7

Saskatoon:
Raw: SKP 43.8 NDP 39.4 LIB 12.8 OTH 4.0
Projects: SKP 7 NDP 5

Both those projections are the same as yesterday's poll. Given the raw numbers here, and the totals for the poll, the SKP lead in the rest of the province is probably a few points more than in yesterday's poll. That would change that projection to SKP 30 NDP 5, and make the provincial total SKP 41 NDP 17. Unless there is some local effect happening, LIB and OTH won't be close anywhere.

Saskatchewan - Regions - November 1, 2007

The poll in the previous post had regional splits: http://insightrix.com/?action=d7_article_viewer_view_article&Join_ID=175382

I have adjusted them to have decided voters add to 100. I don't have software yet to do probability on these.

Regina:
Raw: SKP 41.6 NDP 40.2 LIB 12.4 OTH 5.8
Projects: SKP 4 NDP 7 LIB 0 OTH 0

Saskatoon
Raw: SKP 47.0 NDP 35.4 LIB 11.0 OTH 6.6
Projects: SKP 7 NDP 5 LB 0 OTH 0

The rest:
Raw: SKP 58.0 NDP 30.5 LIB 7.2 OTH 4.3
Projects: SKP 29 NDP 6 LIB 0 OTH 0

Combining the projection makes SKP 40 NDP 18.
