100 of 233 polls and Matt Grant's lead is less than 40 votes.

A party going from 30 seats to 189 seats most certainly is historic.

I feel a bit bad for the NDP, but they're likely to win both ridings I care about, and otherwise coming around to the idea of a Liberal majority. I'll miss Mulcair for his attack dog role in Parliament. He was good at that.

Hopefully Mulcair resigns over this embarrassment and the NDP can get a real leader.

This is a fantastic night all around. The extremes have lost influence, but Alberta remains well represented with who is going to be winning in this province's ridings.

Celebratory joints for everyone!

As an NDP supporter, I'm hoping a new leader is chosen in the next few years. I don't really like Mulclair.

Especially not after Jack.

I think this would have been a very interesting election if Jack was still around.

Jack Layton and Justin Trudeau - both charismatic leaders... would have been great debates.

As much as a disliked him at the time, my voter probably would have went that way if it was an option

110 polls in and Webber now has a 200+ vote lead in Confederation.

Mulcair was a 911-truther flip-flopper nutbar, and the NDO deserved to go back to its historical numbers.

I wonder why the Niqab issue killed the NDP in Quebec but had no effect on the Liberals.

Jerry Butts, the Trudeau campaign advisor.

You could say Butts was behind the campaign.
