Thanks for the post! Details would be great — how close was the May/McKay riding, for example?

Cheers

Sorry folks, I don’t have any more detail than that! Luckily news organizations in Canada can start giving results in about 25 minutes.

I do have this count though:

17 – Liberal
10 – Conservative
4 – NDP
1 – Bloc Quebecois
1 – Other (Independent)

Keep in mind that Atlantic Canada typically leans Liberal, so the thus-far poor showing by the Conservatives won’t hold as Ontario results come in.
