Biiiig drop for the Libs, eh? Interesting that the PC vote share went up but the seat total is down, yet the NDP vote share went up and so did the seat totals. Good for the Dippers, for sure!
ReplyDeleteAny chance of an NDP/Lib Coalition government?
Interesting that the Liberal vote colapsed, but they only lost one seat. The weirdness of first past the post still amazes me.
ReplyDeleteWhy would the NDP form a coalition with the right wing Atlantic Liberals? We have a working red tory majority.
