Just took it.

They have the NDP and the Greens at virtually the same place... makes you wonder what the point of the Greens are there. At least in Ontario they are right wing.

I got: 77% NDP, 75% Green, 57% Lib, 32% Cons

My results: 78% NDP, 76% Greens, 60% Liberals, 32% Purgatories Cheesy

Are the Greenies going the Lizzy May way and focusing their resources on those one or two seats or are they actually running a province-wide campaign?

Dix will resign or be putched before the end of the year.

If the NDP loses tonight, Dix will probably resign tomorrow. And then he should exile himself to Paraguay in shame.

The BCNDP continues to be a joke party, they should just dissolve at this point. How did they (and the pollsters, yeah) f- up this bad?

Polling companies should just disband at this point too.

I kind of expected a Liberal overperformance, since longtime/unpopular incumbents will tend to underpoll. But this is more than overperformance. It's a huge f-ck up for the pollsters (and NDP), a year after Alberta.

CBC calls it a Liberal majority (well, obviously). Is the NDP going to start debating dissolution of the party soon? They should.

Clark is leading. Hope she loses, because that would make this hilarious result even more hilarious.

I think we can all agree on one thing: the media should stop giving attention to the horrible tweets from the random neckbeards, spergs and other morons on Twitter. It is the worst thing in any elections. It hurts so bad.

Here is a novel idea.  If will actually improve the image of the NDP if someone from NDP stepped aside and with NDP support Clark for MLA.  This way NDP can show that they are a constructive opposition and Clark will have to represent a population of more or less pro-NDP views.  Other than tjhe salary there is less of a point of being a MLA in opposition than in the majority. 

How about just no? The base would be terribly upset.

NDP has a GOTV problem. Obviously the solution is to piss off their most die hard voters.

Besides, it's a retarded idea. No political party in the world would ever do that unless they were especially suicidal. Voters don't actually give a sh**t about hot air like "constructive opposition", but they sure as hell do give a sh**t about the word opposition in general.
