The NDP is down about 4% overall on their 2009 result, and are trailing in every region, with swings against them.

Also John Cummins, the Conservative leader, has lost his bid to unseat Liberal Mary Polak in Langley.

I'm under the impression there's a far, far greater number of swing/persuadable voters in Canada than in the US/other comparable democracies. I could be quite wrong, of course. 49-33-1-1, with the elected being 10-5.

Still, wierd things. Liberals leads by 400 votes in Fraser-Nicola, which is pretty much an NDP safe seat.

I've seen elections where a party has a taken a commanding lead in the early returns, only to lose in the later returns.

Most of the early results come from polls with only a few voters since it take a few minutes to count a poll with 20 voters verse  a typical poll with 400 voters.  These smaller polls come from polls that are NOT a representative of the riding. Such as Aboriginal reserves in rural ridings and  Personal Care homes in urban ridings.

14-8, now 51-32. Which would actually be a gain from 2009, and the NDP is copping a 4 point swing the wrong way.

CTV has, CBC has yet to do so. NDPers think a lot of votes are in the advance polls.

18-12-1-1 elected. Yeah, there's something seriously wrong with our polls. 4th election where they either underestimated the incumbent or completely blew it a la Dewey.

The problem is systemic, then. Can't be bad luck at this point.

It'd be bizarre if Clark still loses but the Liberals win.
