Yeah I'm trying to follow that, but it's hard with all the jokes and non-serious stuff. I'm talking about officially released stuff.

Nothing official as it's against the law. CTV or other media wouldn't be caught dead giving official results.

7:30 MDT is when the polls from Alberta to Quebec close, so, that's when things will really get going. BC closes a half an hour later.

So far, all that's out there is the Atlantic Provinces.

I think 7:30pm MDT is when the polls close and we'll start seeing info officially.

Well they have had a lot of practice thanks to all the useless minority govts this country seems to be fond of.

I've been voting for 10 years and I've never had to wait any length of time to vote. In and out in 2 minutes in every Federal, Provincial and Municipal election.

I was considering protest voting by writing someone in, but I forgot they make that difficult by blacking everything out except the check area, so I kind of had to make a quick decision.

So, I take it we're not allowed to discuss anything until after 8:00MDT under penalty of death to Bingo?

Can't we just IP block everyone from BC until 8:00 the playoffs are over?

While the media are complying with laws preventing the release of results, twitter is white-washed with results from dozens of ridings already.

Actually there isn't. Not even close.

Have you seen me make love to a dead body before? Has anyone?

Not surprising that Neo-Cons have trouble producing sound arguments. It's the same thought process that rationalizes the systematic erosion of our democracy.

I got called last minute to a job site, so I don't get to vote. I'm not impressed.

Global already calling it a CPC victory, minority or majority is still the question.

LOL

Do you even know what a "neo-con" is? Serious question, because I don't think anyone here is a "neo-con".
