not technically the CPC but it was a big factor in the last BC provincial election, where the BC Libs are closer to the CPC than any other party for the most part

NDP were leading all the way up to election day, they had a 9% lead in the polls day of and the actual results were a 14% swing

I think BC sees a higher CPC vote than the polls show, I have a bad feeling also that voter turnout isn't going to see the spike needed

might just be cynical
