加拿大的特鲁多连任了
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party has won the 2019 Canadian federal election, according to a projection from the Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC).
据加拿大广播公司推测，加拿大总理贾斯廷·特鲁多的自由党赢得了2019年的加拿大联邦大选。
While the Liberals lost seats in parliament, controlling only a plurality of seats rather than an outright majority, they still have enough to keep control of government.
虽然自由党失去了议会席位，仅控制多个席位，而不是绝对多数席位，但仍然足以控制政府。
This was an especially bitter campaign in Canada. Trudeau’s government had been rocked by two serious scandals, one involving photos of the prime minister in blackface and brownface, the other involving political interference with a federal prosecution.
这是加拿大尤为激烈的一场竞选，特鲁多的政府受到两个严重丑闻影响，一个是总理黑脸和棕脸的照片，另一个是对联邦起诉的政治干涉。
His campaign went negative — attacking Andrew Scheer, the leader of the opposition Conservative party, as unacceptably conservative on social and economic issues — to scare the generally progressive Canadian electorate into sticking with them.
他的竞选不顺，他攻击反对党保守党的领袖安德鲁·谢尔，称其在社会和经济问题上过于保守，以此来吓唬普遍进步的加拿大选民以获取他们的支持。
Apparently, it worked. While Liberal power in Parliament is diminished, it’s still a win for the embattled prime minister. And thanks to the way that Canada’s system works, Canadian policy actually could end up being pushed to the left.
显然这个方法奏效了。虽然自由党在议会的权利被削弱了，但陷入困境的总理仍然胜利了。加拿大的体制导致加拿大的政策最终可能会被推向左翼。
Canadian elections, like American elections, are a first-past-the-post system — meaning the country is divided into different legislative districts, called ridings, and whichever candidate gets the most vote in a riding wins.
加拿大的大选像美国一样，是票数最高者当选，这意味着这个国家有多个立法区，被称为选区。在一个选区得票最高者获胜。
However, Canada is a parliamentary system, meaning Canadians don’t directly elect their prime minister — control of the executive is determined by which party can win the most support in parliament.
然而加拿大是议会制，加拿大人不直接选举总理，由在议会中获得最高支持率的党派来决定谁来掌权。
The key fights in the ridings are typically between the two leading center-left and center-right parties, the Liberals and the Conservatives.
选区的竞争主要是左翼和右翼政党，即自由党和保守党两党之间的竞争。
