Brantford—Brant South—Six Nations — Election Outlook & Projection
Where this riding stands
The RidingWatch model currently projects the Liberals at 43% in Brantford—Brant South—Six Nations, level with the Conservatives at 43%, with the NDP at 10%, the Greens at 4%. Across 10,000 simulations the seat goes to the Liberals in 51% of them, the Conservatives in 49%. The simulations put the Liberals' share anywhere from 37% to 50%, and the Conservatives' from 37% to 49%.
In April 2025 the Conservatives won here with 52%, 11 points ahead of the Liberals. The Conservatives also held it in 2021. Compared with the 2025 result, the current projection has the Conservatives down 9, the NDP up 6, the Greens up 2.3 points. These shifts come from the national polling swing applied to this riding's past results — not from riding-level polling, which the model does not have.
The sitting member is Larry Brock (Conservative), MP since 2021.
Rating: Tossup — the leading parties are within a few points of each other. In practical terms, the leading parties are within a few points and the simulations split between them; this is one of the ridings where individual votes carry the most weight. Within 10 points of the lead: the Conservatives (43%). Every vote counts toward a party's national total regardless of the local outcome.

About the Model
This projection is generated by the RidingWatch statistical model, which combines national polling data with historical election results to estimate vote shares and likely outcomes in each of Canada's 343 federal ridings.
The model begins with a weighted blend of results from the 2025 and 2021 federal elections, then applies the polling swing to each riding using a mostly-uniform (90/10 uniform/proportional) swing method — the national swing, adjusted by the province's pooled deviation where pollsters publish regional crosstabs. No pollster house effects are applied. Incumbency is not assumed: only first-term MPs (+1) and party leaders (+2) receive an adjustment. Uncertainty is estimated through 10,000 Monte Carlo simulations with correlated regional errors.
Projections are updated as new polling data becomes available. All estimates are probabilistic — they represent the most likely outcome given current information, not a guarantee of any result. Actual election outcomes depend on factors the model cannot fully capture, including local campaigns, turnout variation, and late-breaking events.
