Poll numbers can be very misleading. 47% CPC could mean domination in the whole of the province if spread equally (which it likely isn't). It still means the NDP could take a beating in Vancouver.

I think they knew this was their high watermark, and this was their chance to form government. However, if they were deluded into thinking the majority was behind them... they're probably panicking.

Even if they vote the CPC down in January, its pretty clear that means an election, not an appointment.
