Collectively, this included over 15,000 individual interviews, although companies using the IVR (robocall) format were down-weighted in the process.
The seat projection was put together by the Laurier Institute for the Study of Public Opinion and Policy (LISPOP) at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ont.

The accompanying table indicated that the Liberal Party has dropped some 30 seats since the previous LISPOP projection six months ago. The Conservatives have made comparable gains during the period, and it produces the prospect of a minority government for the Liberals.
