First off, congratulations my fellow Americans, today is a decisive point in your country.
It is so difficult to look at those maps however as an American, because the colors are swapped for what I would consider liberal and conservative. The complaints were jarring until I remembered this. NeoGAF appeared a conservative hot-bed haha.

Wow. Did not expect this.
Liberals have no excuse to not deliver on their promises. They have basically been given carte blanche by Canadians today.

There were some projections that had them getting up to 160. This makes that look too conservative.

He should just fucking lose. Save us the ultimate humiliation of having him publicly resign his seat, only to have a by-election have the seat go Liberal.

old white bigots convinced by scare tactics and racism, mostly.
I never seen a party get 27% higher in popular vote in an election than the previous election.
yeup. They promised electoral reform, increased spending and a return from the Harper shitshow. That resonated, the people HUGELY supported them, now it's on them to deliver.
Electoral Reform is the big thing for me.
If you follow the US elections which is an even bigger shitshow you still get >40% of people voting conservative, which is even more insane. Old people and rednecks and rich people gotta be old and redneck and rich.
No way, not with a majority.
From the first time I was able to vote till now, Liberal all the way in both provincial and federal elections. It's my party.
Duceppe is loosing in his riding. So that's good, although that race is super tight

Yeah, we flipped the colors to make things confusing for Americans specifically.
Also, think of the pockets of orange as Ross Perot.

It's the Liberal party. They're going to do something shitty inevitably because that's just what they do. lol

I want him to lose his seat, obviously, if only to save us the cost of a by-election, though part of me would love to see him sitting in the House as -- to use his terminology for Trudeau at the start of this campaign -- the leader of the third-place party.
You improved the demographics of Regina-Lewvan.
(Though if you voted Liberal, I'm mildly annoyed, for strategic reasons.
)That's not entirely true. There are many non whites convinced by these scare tactics also. I have a few friends who are not born Canadians but voted Conservative as they fear higher taxes etc. All about $$$
This whole situation is incredibly depressing. The only good thing is that Harper is done.

hence the "mostly" ;p
You say that as if there has ever been a party ever elected anywhere that has not done something "shitty". Even if some mythical world where the NDP got elected, they would have done something "shitty".
Why? The next election may be a totally different show. I've voted for the Greens every election (voted NDP this election just to try and re-elect our NDP MP) and I have yet to feel discouraged from voting even though the Greens are still a tiny party.
YES! I'm sick and tired of paying $80 for games.

I just want the NDP to die. Every NDP MP should just resign and give those seats over to the Liberals or Conservatives.
Seeing them during Question Period is just going to be salt in the wound.
wouldn't bet on it, but I hope that fixing the CAD is on his short list.

Seems like even Abitibi might go red...
