Race For Stornoway


Eventually, I’ll add a sidebar with Liberal Leadership links, but until candidates actually start declaring, that’s probably a tad premature. For now, here’s a rundown of some of the main sites out there devoted to the race. Let me know if I’ve missed any.

Leadership Sites

Liberal Leadership Odds: The most complete site out there with bios, a forum, and news. Their poll has Stronach (WTF?) and Ignatieff running neck and neck.

Transferable Ballot: Set up by Flash Point Canada. You can rank your candidates in order of preference. With over 500 ballots cast, the current result has Stephane Dion beating out Gerard Kennedy on the final ballot.

The Next Face: Posts news stories on the Liberal race. Seems to favour Ignatieff and Dryden but only pegs their odds at 7:1 and 16:1 respectively.

Liberal Party Leadership: Has candidate profiles and a poll (not many votes so far but, for what it’s worth, the top 3 right now are: Kennedy (32%), Dryden (16%), and Ignatieff (16%)).

Candidate Blogs

Martin Cauchon for PM: This site has been running since last summer.

Draft Dion: No, it’s not run by Paul Wells.

Draft Hellyer: Paul! Paul! Paul!

Blogs Obsessed With LPC Leadership

I’d include myself in this list. These blogs have had a lot of leadership content over the past week.

Liblogs: Probably your best source – the Liberal blog aggregator.

Vijay Sappani: The guy seems awfully certain of what he says. Not sure how much stock I put in it, but he provides daily rumours.

Jason Cherniak: Find out which candidates are “emotive”.

Andrew Coyne: Lots of news, and a ton of comments.

No Ottawa: Mark Watton is a member of the LPC’s national executive.

In addition to this, I’ll be keeping a running tab on the candidates, rumoured and declared, here.
