Different polls reported perhaps? Or they stopped updating Meades because...well he's a non-entity!

Crockatt is almost at the number in the picture and Locke is way way off.... Something strange or some mischief

The Green party has taken a narrow lead in Victoria.

If you to home and open another tab and choose the Victoria option it will add those results to your window.

Different polls being phoned in than have been reported by Elections Canada is my guess.

Or the polls where the Libs went down bad have depressed scrutineers that don't want to phone in the results?

The Victoria contest is getting interesting. The Green candidate has been getting a little momentum lately, and I was wondering if he'd challenge.

The candidate (Donald Galloway) and Elizabeth May were half a block away from my building this morning campaigning at a major intersection. Galloway had his little puppy with him. Was cute.

The Liberals would have won this seat, if not for Trudeau and McGuinty .

My former professor! Cool, now I'm actually rooting for a Green candidate tonight. He's a great guy, truly.

You should develop a porn or video game addiction, helps pass the time between refreshes.
