Reymond Cho has about as much of a chance at winning as a liberal in Calgary. Raymond could have had a solid shot at taking the riding provincially as a Liberal after Curling retires and instead alienated every Liberal frieind he has to take a stab at Derek Lee.
This riding votes Liberal overwhelmingly. Derek Lee doesn't even need to track his vote for e-day since almost 80% of the riding votes Liberal. Scarbourough Rouge-River has the highest proportion of immigrants in the GTA and Cho does not have the individual name recognition ouside of Malvern or even a party brand to help him win.
The only way Cho could conceivably make a run would be with the endorsement of City Councillor Bas Balkision, and I'm pretty sure they don't like each other. Cho has ruined any shot, and he had a good one, of ever making it in provincial or federal politics.
Derek Lee in another walk.

This may be the biggest vote shift in Toronto. Derek Lee won this riding in a walk last time with a very large margin of victory, but independant candidate Raymond Cho was not in the race. Cho is hugely popular in the riding. Even though he got a bit of a late start in this campaign he will win it with tons of grass roots support from all of his friends. This is a very safe place for disaffected Liberals to park thier votes. With the parties fortunes freefalling Raymonds timing is impeccable. Cho is a small "l" liberal anyway who may be persuaded to join the Libs. after he wins this one. A very interesting race to watch.

Since this riding came into existence, after the 1984 general election, it has always returned a Liberal. Among the Toronto-area ridings, this one is about as close to a Liberal slam dunk as it gets. Neither the Tories nor the NDP seem likely to interfere.

Though it may be more Galganov than Nunziata, there *is* a situation of sorts happening here: the rumour that councillor Raymond Cho (who ran for the NDP against Lee in '88, but has since shifted t/w the centre) might run as an independent. Another symbolically important point: Cho represents the troubled Malvern neighbourhood, which went for Miller for mayor in '03--if he wanted to rejoin forces with the NDP *under Jack Layton*, there's some outside-outside opportunity here, *possibly*. But not terribly likely, as it stands right now.

Second only to Mount Royal Quebec, this riding votes Liberal in massive numbers. I cant see any situation that would cause the Liberals to lose here
