Going to keep myself in the dark until tomorrow morning. Good luck Canada's democracy!

Edit: I see democracy has prevailed! And a minority with NDP holding the power balance is a favourable result for progressives!

The comment about Fanjoy potentially winning! Oooh roasted!

PP's riding update as of approximately midnight EST:

NDP needs to drop Singh. Conservatives need to drop PP.

I may as well get to bed, but I wish I would know before if the NDP will have enough seats to prop up an LPC minority. I'd hate to see the LPC+NDP be one or two seats short, leaving the CPC/BQ with enough votes to stymie everything. Right now it's sitting at 170 combined, need 172 or more to make it work.

I have mixed emotions today. I grieved for a few days after tRump was elected in 2024, processing the state and direction of the US. I've never had such a powerful reaction to election results before. I'm guarding myself for the possibility that PP forms a minority government. Improbable but possible. I would hurt and be worried, like I was after tRump last fall.

I voted in the advance polls over Easter weekend, when 7.2 million Canadians turned out iirc. I felt a greater than usual sense of civic duty amongst voters in the voting station - like people felt it especially important to have their voice heard in this election.

Voting typically inspires some pride in me about this country we are fortunate to call home. And although I've nervously been checking CBC News today for issues at polling stations, I also take pride in our voting process. The shit that goes on in the States in and around voting stations is obscene and very undemocratic. Thankfully I've read about no voting-related issues so far. (Our thoughts though are with the Filipino community and everyone affected by the tragedy in BC.)

Ideally, I'd like to have a Liberal minority with an NDP coalition. Second best would be a Liberal majority. I think that's the most likely outcome. For ABC reasons (especially now that C is MAGA-lite), I'd accept it.

tRump's comments today - presumably undermining PP's votes more than anything - surprised me. As did some comments DoFo made about PP and Carney over the weekend. It made me realize that the Conservative party leaders (Marlaina, schMoe, DoFo, PP) in this country have quite different relationships with the other adjacent political forces (i.e., Carney and tRump).

I'm looking forward to election coverage tonight! And I hope to breathe a sigh of relief soon. Don't @#$% this one up, Canada!

"He's earned his right to stay as leader."
Dude it's not even guaranteed that he's keeping his seat.

I had 3 people in front of me at my polling booth, got out in 10 minutes. I think that is the longest its taken me to vote in years. I always go first thing in the morning, lol. Hate lineups.

Interactive live results pages are clearly losing this election.

Elections Canada website down during peak voting time? Yikes.

Looks like everything is in and it ended up with Liberals 169 seats, three short of a majority.

Although jeez, I can't imagine there isn't a recount in the riding where the difference was literally 12 votes out of 21,000. Crazy close.

Either way, I'm guessing the 7 NDP and 1 Green basically become de facto Liberals to create a pseudo majority since at least that way they'll have some influence and it wouldn't be in their best interest to topple the government and go through all this again.

Just got this beautiful flyer hand delivered by the CPC to help me vote against the CPC:

There was a long line out the door of the polling place, but they were all new registrations.

No line at my poll, so I was out in the rain again in about two minutes.

The numbers for Fanjoy have been holding above 2300 for over an hour, as writing this, 219 of 266 polls.
