@spider when did I say that? Please read the comments below to learn my opinion, not gonna repeat myself ad nauseum
As explained earlier in the comments, this market was poorly made and will simply become less accurate if one of the candidates leaves. The JT option is for JT only, not a hypothetical Liberal candidate. As of the time of writing, this market would resolve N/A if none of the listed candidates win. However, there's some talk about whether Manifold will add an auction system, where I could close the market, change the JT option to a new Liberal candidate, and then hold an auction to make it fair when reentering the market with this new option. But unless a fair method of closing and reopening the market is added, I won't be doing that
@PeterNjeim it might be worth editing the description to include this, given the volume of comments.
@spider it's not really that important, the market is asking if a specific candidate will win, if someone interprets that as meaning a certain party, that's them misreading it
New record for the Conservatives. New Mainstreet poll shows their highest ever lead for the Conservatives at 22pp, the second highest lead ever recorded, and the highest recorded lead for an A- or higher rating pollster. It also shows Conservatives with 45% support, the second highest support level ever, the highest being 45.6% back in early March. Liberals and NDP combined only make up 38%, a 7pp lead for the Conservatives over the failing duo
Canada and America are acting in parallel. Both incumbent left-wing leaders are being asked to not seek reelection: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9781gr02p5o
