Why does CBC say NDP won Peace River even though it says PC has more votes?

Apparently 58.5%.

They haven't updated raw vote results in over 2 hours.

If  the PC and WRP parties merged you will get the following results:


PC-WRP - 60 seats
NDP - 25
LIB - 1
AP - 1

That's assuming the PC and WRP voters will vote for a merge party.

What if you merged NDP-Lib-AP?

They wouldn't; NDP was the second choice of more WRP voters.

The NDP won 13 of 26 seats in Calgary and suburban Calgary with the one tie in Calgary-Glenmore and, for some reason, a byelection to be held in Calgary-Foothills.  Joe Ceci got the highest share of the vote for the NDP here at 49.81%

The minor freak out at the end of page 22 through page 23 is pretty great. Predicting electoral calamity for the NDP with 30 votes reporting in a few ridings was perhaps not judicious.

NDP at 597,775 votes  with 7120 of 7141 polls reporting.  Will they top 600,000?

Makes the job of speaker very important. The NDP chief whip will also be an important job.

Only 3 New Democrats in Calgary and its suburbs got over 40% of the vote.

4 New Democrats won in the 11 northern ridings: Colin Piquette, Marg McCuaig-Boyd, Danielle Larivee and Debbie Jabbour.  I predict Piquette and McCauig-Boyd will get in the cabinet with an outside chance to Larivee.

Brian Mason was reelected with 78.07% of the vote. You'd think Alberta was a one party province or something!

Can some Canadian etc. please explain to me in 3-5 short sentences what happened and why ?

I always thought Alberta is the Canadian Utah or Wyoming and now this NDP-surge. It's as if a Green Party governor won the election in UT or WY.

Also, this was my prediction:

My prediction (out of the hat):

38% NDP (46 seats)
26% PC (18 seats)
24% WR (20 seats)
 6% LIB (2 seats)
 4% AP (1 seat)
 2% Others

Turnout: 58%

How did I do and where can someone find results ?

Thx.
