| stof said: I was hoping the NDP would make greater gains in Toronto and Quebec (though it's great to see Mulcair will probably keep his seat), but it's nice to see increased support in Manitoba, B.C. and Newfoundland. Right now the riding to watch is Saskatoon-Rosetown-Biggar, where 140 out of 150 polls show the Cons beating the NDP by only 52 votes (it was the other way around one minute ago!) |
Nettie Wiebe is the second-best candidate in the whole damn province after Ralph Goodale. She really deserves to go to parliament. Sadly, she's down by 250 votes now with only 5 polls left to report. (Edit: And the riding is called for Kelly Block, pictured below. I guess we elect the government we deserve.)
A 52% voter turnout? Yuck. That kinda sums up this whole election campaign right there, though the proximity to Thanksgiving excuses a little of it. I'd think with all the trouble going around that it wouldn't be so hard to persuade people to give a damn, but I guess I'd be wrong.
