Uh, it looks like most ridings have one or two precincts (or whatever wacky name the Canadians call them) in so far. Might want to let some more votes get counted before you panic.

Bloc is leading in only 3 ridings, despite having 23.4% of the vote in Quebec... Gotta love FPTP.

Iggy's down to a 41-34 deficit. Duceppe is down by 14, but there's not many votes in yet.

Three of the four ridings the Bloc is winning are within 1-2% now. They could end up with only one seat.

So why did the Liberals not get wiped out in the Maritimes?

Elizabeth May is up 49-34. Greens looking to be about as relevant as the Bloc in the next Parliament.

How in the world would he stay on as party leader despite not having a seat? Would he make speeches from his front porch or something?

Also not so sure there are any safe Liberal seats now...

Sure there are, there are a whole two of them in Newfoundland that voted majority-Liberal.

He's down by 5.6% with 193/279 in, and he's been trailing all night. I'm going to say no.

Richmond-Arthabaska looks to be a Bloc hold. 34-33 lead with 230/251 in. So... they'll be getting at least 2 seats.

Why is the Green doing so well in the Yukon?

Edit: Bloc takes Richmond-Arthabaska. Looks like they'll win Bas-Richelieu-etc. as well. Ahuntsic is the only other seat that they have a good shot at winning.

Why are Labrador and the PEI ridings underpopulated compared to the rest of the country?
