48 NDP 43 Con and 2 green right now. Both nanaimo seats went NDP. Super pumped about that. My local con candidate was a former NDP MLA for a year who turned con over con issues. The guy who beat her was the youngest city council member. He won well still in collage at the age of 21. Become a lawyer. Now is an MLA at the age of 35.

NDP 46 cons 45 green 2. A number of ridings within a 100 votes or so. Anything 100 votes or less will be an automatic recount. There will be no decision tonight. If no party gets 47 the greens will have a lot of power.

This is crazy ... doesn't the party with the most seats choose a speaker of the house? You can't appoint someone from your own party to be speaker now cuz you'll lose that one vote ... no?
With about 95% of the votes in it looks like the Green Party voters will end up costing the NDP about 10 seats, many of them would have been easily winnable if just half the Green votes switched to the NDP.
My AFC gave me an ABS CEL code of LOL while at WOT!

didn't even have a green candidate in my riding. i like (some) of their philosophy, but they do this shit everytime. if you can't field a full crew of candidates - you shouldn't be able to run in provincial politics. i want to like them - even support them in some ways. but it's bush league
EDIT: fuck - Sonia couldn't even keep her own seat.

They are saying the same thing about ridings where an Independent ran (formerly BC United) and took some votes from BC Cons ... the Cons could have won some of those ridings.

Hadn't looked at the Cons so I just went through the latest results and I count 3 seats the Cons would have won if there wasn't an independent (I assume this was a BC United candidate) and 8 that the NDP would have won without the Greens so a net +5 for the NDP - just enough for a slim majority (Greens would still claim 2 seats).
Too bad there isn't a centrist right party with a likeable leader. The message is loud and clear though - the NDP is not doing enough on affordability, healthcare, housing, opioid crisis, and crime.
I just couldn't cast a vote for the party with such a weird, climate change denier, anti-vaccine leader.
I still don't know why Kevin Falcon shat the bed so badly.
