2011 Canadian Provincial Elections - Wrap-up phase.

[Smid]

Anybody know how this would have been coloured in the most recent federal election just for comparison.

The 506 has his excellent website

It doesn't show poll-by-poll for the whole island, I don't think, but you can look at it on a riding-by-riding basis (as in, look at a poll-by-poll map for each of the four ridings).

Oh! Hey! PEI uses the same polling districts for Federal and Provincial elections! Heh! That makes comparisons easy

[Smid]

For tomorrow, here's the Manitoba Key Map I prepared, with each riding numbered and referenced. Unfortunately, due to the redistribution, I don't have a previous election results map.



There's obviously a bigger version in the gallery (along with a blank one with a colour key ready to use - both are in the "Blank Maps" section, not "Election Results - International").

Wellington, PEI in Prince is intensely Liberal. What's up there? Isn't that the only place with a non-negligible french population?

The Evangeline region is the Acadian region of Quebec. It's also the "Capital" of Acadia, sort of.

And my final post on the NWT election is this:

Sorry but this is pathetic. The "live election coverage" is not even reporting on live election coverage. It's just a bunch of natives speaking in their native language one after another in front of radio mics. I'm embarrassed to be in the same country as this. It's not a population thing, don't give me that, Yukon elections are exciting as you'll all see in a week. This? This... This is pathetic.

So? There are a lot of different languages to cover, should each have its own complete coverage?

[minionofmidas]

Lol, there's a place called "Gimli" in Manitoba?

(wikies) Quite right. And with good reason, too.

Thats also mildly offensive, the NWT is not the Yukon, and is nowhere near the south. The majority are artic aboriginal peoples so i don't expect there to be much english outside Yellowknife. The Yukon has always been more "white" and anglo, you can thank the goldrush for that ... I totally agree the consensus system is a bore and by the sounds of things isn't very effective. There is actually a facebook page set up to discuss that very thing i believe.  https://www.facebook.com/groups/NWT.elec.17/
With political parties you get a standard message and i think that helps attracts candidates cause there is a central party helping to get candidates in place.
I'm very excited to see how things shape up in the Yukon (to show how serious the NDP is, Olivia Chow was campaigning up there!)

NWT and Nunavut would be so much more fun with parties.

[minionofmidas]

NWT and Nunavut would be so much more fun with parties.

Precinct results are kind of fun as is, I had a look at some constituencies. Personal/Ethnic voting ftw!

There is no reason aboriginal peoples can not have political parties.

What sort of time - GMT - will the results start to do that trickle-in-thing?

[Hash]

About now, I think.

[Hatman 🍁]

Elections Manitoba = fail website

[Holmes]

NDP ahead in Kildonan.

yawn.

[Hatman 🍁]

CBC and Elections Manitoba are showing different results.  Tories lead in Emerson.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

The usual hilarious patterns from very early results there to see, if only briefly.

[mileslunn]

The Tories seem to be doing well in the West of Winnipeg, I am awaiting the South of Winnipeg as usually whomever wins this wins the election.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

Now the results are coming in bigtime. Looks good news.

[mileslunn]

Still awaiting the South.  The NDP is dominating the North side as expected.  Hopefully soon we can get a projection.

[Teddy (IDS Legislator)]

CBC will probably do a projection for an NDP majority within 10 minutes.

[mileslunn]

Global usually is first.  I find CBC the most cautious of all networks in calling races.
