Niagara Centre
Riding Overview
A new Ontario riding mostly made up of the existing Welland riding. Support in the area has recently been a three-way race between Conservatives, NDP, and Liberals. In 2011, the NDP held the Welland seat with 42% of the vote, while the Conservatives took 40%, and the Liberals trailed behind at 14%. Both the incumbent, NDP MP Malcolm Allan, and the 2011 Conservative candidate, Leanna Villella, are running again in October.
