I can't begin to fathom why 15% of the voters would cast a useless vote for the Greens when NDP is an available alternative. Canada is just weird sometimes.

So, one thing to remember: Lots of advance votes still left to count. They wont be counted for a while (days?) because Elections BC is understaffed. This election probably wont be called tonight.

How do those votes lean?

A bare NDP-green majority sounds like a recipe for disaster. At this rate, Libs will be back in power within a year or two.

Not if electoral reform pass in 2018.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Another stupid, pointless and harmful tradition that the British have saddled their former possessions with.

Assembly called for June 22.

So, electing a Speaker on June 22 and a Throne Speech on June 23?

Can't the coalition just elect a Liberal speaker? They have the majority, after all, so they can elect whoever they want (as long as someone is willing to take the seat).

They can, obviously. The tradition is a bit wierd. Everyone is a candidate (but party leaders and ministers) and you actually need to withdraw yourself from contention.

In any case, electing a speaker must be done first. Nothing can happen until it's done.

They should totally do that. Lib's heads would explode.

Even if they succeed, I fail to see how these shenanigans could play well with the voters.

They should just keep electing liberals until one of them takes the seat. Tongue
