Doer was always quick to downplay pre-election polls that predicted the NDP could win more than 37 seats, an unprecedented number (unless you count the 40 seats won by the Liberals in 1915).
To win that many, the NDP would have needed to take seats from die-hard Progressive Conservative strongholds in southern Manitoba, the so-called "yellow dog" territory where a canine running under the Tory banner is fabled to win.
While the rural south ridings stayed PC blue, the NDP did manage to steal four seats from the Tories.

In October, NDP leader, Jack Layton, supported a 24-year old recent university graduate, daughter of a Manitoba cabinet minister, for the Churchill, Manitoba riding nomination against NDP incumbent, Bev Desjarlais.
This means that there will certainly be a split vote on the left in her riding and, as a result, it is unlikely that the NDP will retain that seat.
As stated by NDP riding association president, Christopher Duncanson-Hines, for the Carlton-Mississippi Mills riding in Ontario, "Faith is becoming more important as an issue in public life, and I don't think we can ignore what's going on."
