After Elections BC added 150,415 valid votes to the final vote count, the shift in vote share was very minimal.
No party gained or lost more than 0.36 percentage points, however the Conservative Party of BC was able to pick up an additional seat in Burnaby South-Metrotown
Final Count is now complete for the 44th BC Election with 1.94 million valid votes cast.
BC Conservatives finish with 64 seats, the BC NDP finish with 27. Four ridings finished with under 100 vote margin.
After all votes considered, Dallas Brodie, the leader of OneBC, got less votes in her own riding than Petra Kuret, the candidate for CentreBC.
Per Elections BC
OneBC will be finishing with over 3,000 less votes than CentreBC, although OneBC only ran 33 candidates vs CentreBC's 35.
Both parties entered the election with one sitting MLA on the ballot.
Elections BC has now added ~150,000 votes to the final count (out of 151,206 considered)
We are very unlikely to see any additional seats flip at this point with so few ballots remaining.
Here is the vote share. 👇
@darryldjd My best guess is that they're counting different types of ballots now compared to yesterday which require more verification steps per ballots.
Best case scenario for Conservatives, they pick up one more seat and hold the other three, ending up with 65 seats.
Worst case scenario for Conservatives, the BC NDP picks up three additional seats and holds one, ending up with 30 seats, and the Conservatives would end up with 61 seats.
100,878 absentee and mail-in ballots were counted today for the BC Election (~50,000 remain)
Vote share tonight only: BC Cons 46%, BC NDP 37%, BC Greens 14%
Compared to election night only
Vote share: BC Cons 48.1%, BC NDP, 37.4%, BC Greens 11.0%
Very similar proportions
