173.212.113.20
Metledge Diab is a deeply problematic and tone deaf candidate - she has direct family ties to the Metledge slum housing racket in Halifax (including acting as their lawyer) - this family does more to exploit low income renters and exacerbate the housing crisis in HRM than most anyone.
That said, Liberals are too much of a lock here to not win - was easily the safest or 2nd safest seat in the Maritimes. I would just expect Diab to win by a much narrower margin than Regan.

Despite their loss, the NS Liberals had a lot to show for in this part of the province racking up good performances, even if PC candidates weren't always the best fit. The safest Liberal riding should stay that way.

‘Best Liberal seat in NS’ was no longer good enough for a majority in '19; but it was good enough for a 30-point plurality vs a 3-way split for 2nd (the only Atlantic seat where only one party finished past 20%). So it's not like Geoff Regan's bequeathing vulnerability or anything.

24.146.13.237
This riding has no incumbent as long time mp Geoff Regan has retired . not sure if that by itself is enough to create a race here . although if you’re the ndp it has to be one of those seats you start to wonder about if you start to have any momentum as it had been ndp in 97 and they posted some good results a few other elections. But still a riding with a long liberal tradition .

174.114.237.78
With long-time Liberal MP Geoff Regan retiring, the Liberals are likely to lose some votes here. But the overall Liberal strength in the riding should be enough to allow provincial Liberal MLA Lena Metlege Diab to win the riding.
27/07/21 Lolitha
161.184.30.62
Won by a really large margin in 2015 and 2019, it would take a very significant shakeup for the Liberals to lose here this time around. 99% Liberal probability on 338, 100% on Leantossup as of July 27.
