Who did you vote for?

I'm talking more about the math of the actual results.

Perhaps future debate commissions will think twice about putting clowns like Bernier on TV. What an embarrassing turnout as a whole.

Thanks. Good to see sanity prevailing.

CBC showing random ridings...
Battle River is approx:
CPC 40,000
NDP 2,000
LPC 1,000

That's much worse than the worst red-object-electing riding we have around here.

A cat with a human-sounding name would take the riding. A cat with a clearly feline name might still take it.

Wonder if this could be the first minority to last a full term? Not like the Bloc are going to be anxious to go back to the polls after coming back from extinction.

Also looks like the PPC didn't really have the negative effect it was thought. Renata Ford isn't even at 1000 votes with 81% of the polls in. I doubt there is even one riding where they took away enough support from the CPC to cost them the race, but it will be interesting to dive into the numbers once they are all in.

Looks like country singer George Canyon is coming in second in another vote (the first time was on Nashville Star 15 years ago lol). Maybe he will go back to singing the anthem for the Flames.

Milton went Liberal

I forgot... At which point was the election more or less determined? Was it at Ontario again?

CBC is showing one Independent, who is it?

I think that's JWR making a comeback.

If you believe that you haven't been paying attention. A significant number of those votes were a big FU to Justin. The people who panicked and voted for Justin at the last second will come to regret their votes in short order.

Quebec to Alberta all closed at the same time, so it's hard to tell.

Hopefully the next debate commission won't be controlled by the Liberal Party. The fact that this election had ZERO focus on foreign issues is going to come back to haunt us in the near future.

Sure, sure. Maybe Alberta will learn their views are in the minority... but I wouldn't hold my breath.

The English debate format was crap. But what foriegn policy threats are on the horizon?

Trudeau must be kicking himself for supporting TMX.

Completely disagree, the Bloc was looking at 40+ seats pretty easily and right now are currently losing many reasonably winnable seats (seats that they used to regularly win) by a hair.

The NDP on the other hand might not be anxious to return to the polls soon, so they're the ones who could make the Lib minority last a pretty long time.

Not a chance. Liberals are the definition of elitist snobs.

I don't think the Libs are looking at the Bloc at all. Political reality will sink in and the Libs will look to the CPC to support things the NDP can't tolerate, and the CPC will be happy to get some stuff through.
