New Brunswick: September 22, 2014

[MaxQue]

CBC and CTV still have 26/22.

Rad-Can TV has 24-24. Website is behind by a few minutes.

[MaxQue]

The NDP needs someone to be leader for more than one election, so they can spend a few cycles building the party. Right now it's just a revolving door. They haven't had a leader stick around in over a decade.

At the same time, if you are not in the Assembly, you have no revenues. Hard to lead a party and travel around the province without any revenues.

CBC said ENB is calling polling stations to confirm #. Lesson: ALWAYS COUNT MANUALLY.

The issue isn't boxes, it's the special vote! ENB problem!

CBC said ENB is calling polling stations to confirm #. Lesson: ALWAYS COUNT MANUALLY.

ENB published a press release.

8 boxes have counted but are unable to transmit to the database, for some reason. They hope to fix the issue tonight.

Also, is anyone else finding the new look of CBC's "New Brunswick votes" less user-friendly than the old clickable maps they used to have?

Yes, I tried using it. It's terrible.

Radio-Canada uses it too, but it's bad. Better than previous Radio-Canada system, through (they had no maps at all!)

[MaxQue]

No result tonight in Edmundston-Madawaska Centre, since the last tabulator is broken. They have nobody to count, so they'll count tomorrow, apparently.

[MaxQue]

Michael Quinn, the Chief Electoral Officer must resign.

[MaxQue]

We are at 49 broken tabulators.

They decided to delete all data and restore it totally and withheld all data until they are sure everything is right.

[MaxQue]

The problem with those tabulators was than there was alreayd results written manually in those places.

PC party president is wanting all votes to be recounted by hand.

[MaxQue]

The PC lawyers advice is to not concede (until a hand recount of all votes, I suppose?) .

PC leader won't do any speech tonight, apparently.

Well, New Brunswick will make news tomorrow!

[MaxQue]

PC night is finished. Alward won't do any speech tonight (not anybody at the HQ will comment) and the party president called for a complete hand recount.

The 49 broken tabulators are literally on road, they are going at the returning officer office. In Campebello, one will have to go through the US border.

[MaxQue]

They want 49 cards, but there is only issues with 35 of them? That's some terrible management.

[MaxQue]

Liberals want Elections NB to be sure to count all votes and stress than they have a important plurality of votes.

[MaxQue]

New results!

Bad news. PA leader is back in the race. Trailing by only 26 votes.

[MaxQue]

27 Lib, 21 PC, 1 Green now.
