Final Canadian election comments and updates

  • Rick Mercer (sort of like a Canadian Jon Stewart) commented that there’s a possibility for another election in “two or three months”. The re-elected Conservative government called for this election in the first place, calling themselves “dysfunctional”.
  • The lowest voter turnout on record is around 60%, but this year’s turnout may be as low as 50%. Not enough data to know for sure at this point.
  • “Student Vote” mock highschool election results: Conservatives reign supreme, NDP second, Liberals third, Greens fourth.
  • Seat counts have been fluctuating a bit. See the latest on CBC’s website (seat counts change every few minutes)

Canadian Conservative minority government confirmed

Majority = 155 seats. 3 seats remaining.

Conservatives: 145
Liberals: 79
BQ: 47
NDP: 33

Our self-proclaimed “dysfunctional” government? It’s back.

Conservative majority “unlikely”; would need to win more than one out of every two seats remaining, including many they have never won before.

SEAT COUNT SO FAR
Conservatives: 129
Libs: 73
BQ: 46 (jesus christ, Quebec nationalists)
NDP: 30

37 seats remaining. British Columbia/Yukon votes in as of 10pm. Remember: 155 seats for majority.

Conservative: 124
Liberal: 75
BQ: 42
NDP: 27

Getting nervous now.

Conservative government confirmed. Question still to be answered: minority or majority?
