Well...here is what I can see happening...

Liberal party will lose and be in a minority position against the NDP. Cons may pick up a handful of seats (MAYBE) and Green may get 1..possibly 2 (most likely on the Island or Coast).

Liberal party has a huge chance of imploding. They either dump CC and focus on rebuilding and come out swinging in the next election or die a slow death and consider merging with the Cons....maybe a little BC Reform style. OR they totally crumble and but the time the next election comes, they are dead and the Cons become the official Anti-NDP party...which, honestly, I'd kind of like to see.

If you do not want to vote NDP and you are not comfortable with the state of the Liberals right now, consider voting for the Conservative. The more people who vote for a party in this election will dictate who will go against the NDP in the next election.

I don't know if that made any sense...maybe?

As an aside, I was watching the news today and they were comparing the economy\provincial debt\spending under the last 4 leaders (Harcourt, Clark, Campbell, and Clark) and under the NDP, the province was ahead. The reason the BC Libs did so well in the last 10 years was due to commodity prices...not their management.

Its pretty obvious that I am an NDPer...I am not HARDCORE, but my vote tends to land with them more often than not. I think the crash of Christy Clark in the last 2-3 years was ridiculous and there is no way in hell I could vote for her. It has been one debacle after another and I can't handle the lies any longer. Also, the fact that the party plans to dump her seconds after the polls close does not instill a lot of faith in me in regards to the party as a whole.

Another thing you could do is see how your area voted in the previous election and go from there.
