The NDP candidate in Nepean was nominated yesterday, can't remember who it is.
With the NDP surge a Conservative hold of both Nepean and Kanata-Carleton is looking a lot more likely now. The main Liberal vs. Conservative action will be in Ottawa West-Nepean and Orleans. The NDP have a chance in Ottawa-Vanier if they continue to lead the polls.
Regionally, there's only three races in the 613 worth watching outside Ottawa:
1) Glengarry-Prescott-Russell: Possible Liberal gain from the Conservatives
2) Kingston and the Islands: Possible NDP gain from the Liberals
3) Bay of Quinte: Possible Liberal gain from the Conservatives
.. and even then, those possibilities are not very high.
The 613 is never a particularly difficult battleground. Notably all local results here did not change here between 2006 and 2011, despite the large number of seats that changed hands in that time period.
