I thought the polls only closed now.

Thanks.  I thought I read a CBC news story that said '8 PM sharp.'

From my count on the CBC TV, 10 P.Cs have been declared elected so far, 3 Greens and 1 Liberal.

This is a weird election; almost like New Brunswick in reverse--not to mention an inverse of that historical PEI pattern where small polling margins can yield massive seat differences.

I sort of had an inkling the PCs might wind up on top, what w/that late poll showing them in the lead--and sure enough, they have a huge polling headway.  But it looks like a lot of that has been wasted on rural landslides; so what *should* be a solid PC victory vs split opposition has turned into a minority.  (And proof that even in PEI, the urban-rural left-right sorting trend has prevailed.)

Oh, and the PCs are up to 12, with the Premier falling behind in his own seat.


I don't know if it's large wins in rural ridings or large wins for the incumbents.

In 2015, Gord McNeilly ran for the NDP and was leading until the advanced poll came in.  This time Gord McNeilly ran for the Liberals and was trailing until the advanced poll came in.
