So sorry. That sucks.

Huge loss for FVC/Overstory but congrats on the new Tyee gig Tyler! Thanks for all your hard work over the years mentoring KPU's students! 😀

As I explored exhaustively this past Fall, late counted votes in B.C. provincial elections historically favour the left-leaning party and did so again in 2024. www.chadskelton.com/2024/10/how-...

Now, having said all that, CBC's David Cochrane is saying on TV right now that they're pretty sure that straggling polls are mainly advance polls and special ballots which seem to tilt Liberal. And Lib (167) + NDP (7) margin has been inching up. So who knows...

@kevinmilligan.bsky.social has a nice spreadsheet of the closest races, and it shows how some of the tightest ones are Lib-Con where the Libs are leading. That's a fragile place to be. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Pro tip to a fellow nerd: If you have all results updating on a single webpage, =IMPORTHTML is your friend. (Though doesn't seem like Elections Canada has all ridings on a single page?) support.google.com/docs/answer/...

In fairness, Liberals still have a few shots at turning a few blue seats red.

And a couple of other razor-thin Liberal margins in Metro Vancouver with a few polls left to count.

Wouldn't take much for the Liberals to lose their (razor thin) lead in Kelowna. Though only a handful of polls left to report.

And there seem to be at least a few B.C. seats where the tide is shifting against the Liberals in late vote count. bsky.app/profile/chad...

And just 7 minutes later, Conservative Ellis Ross has a strong lead. Early votes and late-counted votes must have come from very different areas.
