		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.
