GT: Federal Election

[SuperMatt18]

I kind of hate when they call it this early. I get that the news outlets want to be first but I feel like it paints a poor picture.

They complain nobody votes but hard for ppl to think "every vote matters" when you call an election when the majority of the country hasn't even had their vote counted yet.

Nenshi on CBC now - shouldn't he be at city hall running the city?

Mulcair in danger of losing Outremont by 8 votes! Crazy

[Senator Clay Davis]

I always thought two leaders would step down after this election, I didn't think it'd be tonight. The NDP will be having a much worse night than the CPC, though they'll both be in the wilderness for a while now.

Does Thomas Mulcair survive this election, even if he holds his seat?

Harper I could understand he's been at it a long long time.

I think the NDP core needs to be honest with itself and realize that the relative recent success of the party was largely because it acted like a place to drop Liberal protest votes and was a Liberal placeholder until they could get their stuff together.

I am not saying that the NDP isn't a good party or that having that voice in parliament is bad, but I don't think they were ever as popular as their number of seats suggested. Mulcair is going to get a lot of the blame, but I don't think that is totally fair.

It will be interesting to see minority majority yet

Balanced budget, niqab, senate, clarity act, creepy tom.
Just too many mistakes

3/10 on the gloating scale.

Just May wins her seat. She's like a gnat at a dinner party.

BC not counted yet.

[dammage79]

Well holy moly. That escalated quickly. Only question is now will it be a majority.

[nik-]

They shouldn't even be reporting ridings until 10% of the polls have reported. Showing numbers when 1 of 192 polls have reported is, frankly, embarrassing.

[Drak]

118 red now.

[GGG]

I hate when they show data with 1 poll reporting and talk about it like its meaningful.

Canadians voted Liberal today because last night the Colts showed us that having everyone shift to the right just makes you look super dumb.
