A 70-29 lead in Outremont is huge. Cant see Mulcair making that back. Most boxes are the same.

7 polls in, Matt Grant has a lead of several points in Calgary Confederation. Historic!

Looking like Liberal Majority. Pretty surprised. Definitely didn't see that coming.

Pretty much the results I expected last week.

Disappointed (but not surprised) to see Harper leading in our Calgary Heritage riding, hope both Matt Masters (NDP) and Brendan Miles (Liberal) opt to run in the inevitable by election when Harper steps down. Might actually end up with some actual representation for our riding in parliament.

Hard to think it won't be a majority once BC starts reporting.

Liberals only need 7 more seats with 50 to go.

No. Or we're all taking it up the arse again inside of two years, getting shafted by paying for another election. No thanks.

Sannich- Gulf Island will probably re-elect Elizibeth May.

So there could be 2 elected in the area.

It looks like Marc Garneau's riding is going to be close. Only leading by 2 votes.

I hate when they call election results historic. All election results are historic

Shaping into a majority if these projections hold up. Holy cow, I didn't think that would happen.
