It really is. When voter turn out is that low, everyone in the riding loses, no matter which candidate they preferred.

True, but there are pretty significant demographic differences. There are two people living in Mount Royal mansions in this riding, and 50 people living in a similar-sized building not far away.

Apparently a pic from Locke Headquarters. LPC 34.7 CPC 32.6

I guess it all depends on where your numbers are being phoned in from

This is very, very tight.

For whatever it's worth, just over half the polls are now in. That doesn't necessarily mean half of the votes, but its 135 out of 263.

If anyone's interested the Liberals have a lead on their "board". Results get called in faster than they get posted...

Interesting picture Bunk--notably, the raw numbers for both candidates are higher in that pic, indicating they may have more up-to-date data.

Reminds me of election night in Calgary when Nenshi's team had numbers putting Nenshi in the lead much earlier than the television stations.

EXCEPT... they have a lower number for Meades than Elections Canada does. Weird.

Why are the results coming so slowly. Plenty of time for each station to have counted. Do they all need to be verified in a central location or something?
