Wow, the place I was going to vote ended voting at 4 (wtf?) So I didn't end up making it out due to time constraints but was going red so hopefully this keeps up

Since 1867, Fundy Royal has elected a Conservative in every single election except one (1993). If that riding goes Liberal, this will be a VERY long night for the Conservatives.

Hopefully a Conservative minority. I'd rather see the NDP under Mulcair finished and they can start with someone new.

If the Liberals get it, I'm going to have a lot of fun watching craniums go kablooey around here. The only way they'd explode any faster, was if the NDP took it.

NDP Campaign guy says don't expect Red trend into QC. I'm hard pressed to buy that right now. That flow is going to ruin a few projections I think.

Okay, so 308 predicted 146 for the Liberals, 26 of those being in Atlantic Canada.

If this continues and the Liberals win 32/32 in Atlantic Canada that would put them at 152.

Curious to see if this is an indicator a widespread late-breaking swing towards the Liberals Canada-wide as suggested by the final Forum and Nanos polls on Sunday.

No real surprise in Atlantic Canada in regards to Conservative votes. They were projected to win 2 and fight for a third.

Looks like they have 1 right now and I expect they'll come away with two ridings in Atlantic.

So in terms of popular vote relative to polls how are the lobs performing. That under sampling should be consistent across Canada.

I don't know if it's for real, I couldn't find anything to support it other than the post on FB, but I saw a shared post from a woman whose polling station was only open until 130 pm.

Conservatives have clawed back a meager 2 vote lead in Tobique-Mactaquac.

Edit: Now 56 vote lead for CON.

The CBC tracker sucks, they didn't put the party beside the names.

Not only that but employers must give you 3 hours uninterrupted to allow you to vote.

Is that the Jack Harris NDP battle?

Polling stations do not have different operating hours, full stop. Something weird here

Gave Matt Grant in Confederation my vote for LPC. Gotta say the Marxist/Leninist party almost had an outside shot as soon as I saw it. I'd be interested to know if they got any votes. Most likely from uni students who think it's funny.

Good to see them taking the Atlantic away. I've never been this invested in an election before.
