Liberals are losing ground, but thankfully Tony Clement is getting spanked

Seriously? CBC has about 30 ridings reporting total, and some of those have a total of 6 votes so far. What's Global basing theirs on?

Very premature, based on 40 seats...likely doing it for marketing purposes so they can say they called it first.
Just based on the Conservatives picking up 2 Liberal seats in Atlantic Canada.

The Canadian Embassy in Tokyo is broadcasting the Election results live today. I was going to pop down just to see if there was any way I could get them to switch channels to show the BOA.

Didn't bother to vote here as I would be registered in Stephen Harper's riding and it wouldn't have mattered anyway.

Liberals taking Atlantic Canada +6 or so over the CPC. Not a good sign for Harper there. No big switching of parties within ridings so far.

Are we seeing the Canadian people running from a conservative government, again?

I don't get it. They have 43-23 Libs and the Cons have already won?

Not sure how global is calling a Cons win???? Alittle early considering they trail by 20 seats now.
