Example Campaign Scoring<\/h1>\n

Each Polling Division receives a score.<\/p>\n

90\u2013100 = Priority A<\/strong><\/p>\n

75\u201389 = Priority B<\/strong><\/p>\n

60\u201374 = Priority C<\/strong><\/p>\n

Below 60 = Maintenance<\/p>\n

    I can also prepare a much more advanced campaign package, including:<\/h2>\n
      \n
    1. Every Polling Division in Brampton (approximately 400\u2013500 PDs) mapped to the correct municipal ward.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    2. Historical turnout by PD (2018 and 2022) with 2026 projections.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    3. A swing-PD index<\/strong> identifying where additional canvassing is most likely to influence the result.<\/li>\n
    4. A colour-coded GIS-style Brampton map<\/strong> showing every PD, ranked from Priority A (highest opportunity) to Priority D.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      That level of analysis requires the official poll boundaries and turnout data for the relevant election, but once those datasets are available, it can be built into a professional campaign workbook.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      If you’re preparing a municipal consulting package, I can build a much more detailed GIS-style resource, including:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Street-by-street campaign walk routes<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Polling Division (PD) boundaries overlaid on streets<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Neighbourhood demographic profiles<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Estimated voter density by subdivision<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Canvassing priority map (A\u2013D)<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Advance poll locations with 5 km catchment areas<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Printable colour maps in A3\/PDF for campaign teams<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        This would be a campaign planning product rather than a prediction of how residents on any particular street are likely to vote.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
