Any reason why the Tories have the most called seats so far?

Grits SORT OF HOLD Hants-West.

Traditionally a Tory stronghold, Hants-West's incumbent MP Chuck Porter was elected as a Tory in 2013, but crossed the floor to the Liberals in 2014. It stays with Porter.

EDIT: Burrill has also taken the lead in Halifax-Chebucto.

EDIT 2: Victoria-The Lakes and Pictou East both called for the Tories.

EDIT 3: As is Clochester-Musquodoboit Valley.

Victoria--The Lakes is a gain, for the record. The wife of the federal MP is defeated.

They explained on the CBC TV.  Tories have large leads in ridings they're winning in.  This explains why they lead in the popular vote but trail in the seat count.

Some of their incumbents are racking enormous majorities. Hence their popular vote lead, too.

Disgraced former councillor Brad Johns is up in Sackville-Beaverbank, and the Tories are up in Cape Breton-Richmond. Both VERY surprising.
The anti BJ (lol) vote is being split between the Grit and the Dip.

EDIT: Cowell and Maguire sent back.

Hopefully the Liberal incumbent vote comes in. It's weird to see a borderline majority while the Tories are up in the popular vote.

Despite looking good for the Tories early on, Bedford is held for the Grits.

EDIT: As is Annapolis (the Premier's seat) and Clare-Digby.

EDIT 2: Tories GAIN Queens-Shelburne from NDP.

Chester-St. Margaret's keeps going back and forth between the Liberals and NDP, but there are only 9 more polls left there.

Yeah. It's looking like the Grits will have anywhere from 23 to 26 seats with the NDP having as many as 10.

NDP seems to be outperforming expectations. Also, popular vote is tied.

Sackville-Cobiquard becomes the first NDP called seat.

At the same time, Grits hold Lunenburg West and the Tories hold Kings North & Cumberland North.

EDIT: NDP hold Halifax-Needham.

This should be the final list of competitive New Democrats.  So, all in Halifax Metro, except for a couple 'legacy MLAs' and two in industrial Cape Breton.

Underperforming mainly in Anapolis Valley I think.

It's down everywhere. CTV estimates 39% in Metro Halifax.
