Flamborough—Glanbrook—Brant North — Election Outlook & Projection

Ontario Likely Liberal Margin: 7pts Win probability: 85% (LPC) Last updated: 2026-09-14 Open in the interactive dashboard →

Where this riding stands

The RidingWatch model currently projects the Liberals at 48% in Flamborough—Glanbrook—Brant North, 7 points ahead of the Conservatives at 41%, with the NDP at 8%, the Greens at 3%. Across 10,000 simulations the seat goes to the Liberals in 85% of them, the Conservatives in 15%. The simulations put the Liberals' share anywhere from 41% to 54%, and the Conservatives' from 35% to 47%.

In April 2025 the Conservatives won here with 53%, 10 points ahead of the Liberals. That was a change from 2021, when the Liberals took the seat. Compared with the 2025 result, the current projection has the Conservatives down 12, the NDP up 6, the Liberals up 5 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 Dan Muys (Conservative), MP since 2021.

Rating: Likely Liberal — the Liberals are ahead in most simulations. In practical terms, the Liberals are ahead in most simulations, but the Conservatives win in 15% of them — the outcome is probable, not fixed. Within 10 points of the lead: the Conservatives (41%). 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.
