Can I just say, Canada's election cartogram is bizarre.

First results: Conservatives winning 71.4% of the vote*. Not good for Trudeau! Surprise

*28 votes counted.

Either Beauséjour is a data error, or the Conservatives really missed the mark; they're currently at just 16.1% there.

So... Quebec and at least most of Ontario have polls closed now, right?

Quote from: Storr on October 21, 2019, 08:42:48 PM
CBC calls Nova West for Con, 4th flip from Liberal to Conservative.

Because this is Atlas, I have to float the question: Do these flips in NB and NS indicate ME-2 could be an uphill fight for Dems in 2020? Hmmmm...

I'd like to take a moment to thank CBC for using the Mercator projection on their map to emphasize the importance of the often neglected First Nations communities in the far north, which the Mollweide or Gall-Peters projections both try to minimize. #NotAllMercatorProjections

CBC has Liberals winning or ahead in 100 seats.

Can I just complain as an American that Canadian ridings aren't subject to the contiguity restrictions congressional districtions are, and yet they are still less gerrymandered? Didn't even realize there are a couple of non-contiguous ridings until tonight.

My mom will really like CBC's holographic giant Trudeau walking around the Parliament building.

Canadian pundits are so polite. Not to reinforce steteotypes or anything, but it's refreshing.

Is Mumilaaq Qaqqaq the first person to ever win election with five Qs in their name? Also, dang, she's the same age I am. What am I doing with my life?

Edit: Looks like she hasn't actually been declared winner yet, she's just in the lead.

Looks like Libs will probably win Sydney-Victoria after all. It hasn't been called yet, but there's only one poll outstanding with the Liberal up over 1,300 votes.

Just an observation, but it seems like your average Canadian MP is very young compared to most countries, especially the US. Any idea as to why this might be?
