Summary
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s riding of Carleton experienced the highest early voting turnout in Canada, with 43,394 residents participating, making up 45% of registered voters. This surge comes amid speculation of a tight race for re-election against Liberal challenger Bruce Fanjoy, who views the election as a referendum on Poilievre’s political style. While polls indicate Poilievre holds a 10-point lead, both parties are mobilizing significant resources for the contest, with over 500 volunteers supporting Fanjoy’s campaign.
