This is the second Green breakthrough in the Maritimes - last year they won a seat in New Brunswick for the first time. Both have no real NDP presence- presumably because their Liberal Parties are connected to the federal version, rather than being a strange catch-all of Lefties, Righties and opportunists as in Quebec, BC, etc. |

NDP 40.5% (53 seats) Wildrose 24.2% (20 seats) PC 27.8% (10 seats, but really 9 since Prentice already resigned) Liberals 4.2% (1 seat) Alberta Party 2.3% (1 seat)  ?: 2 seats (it's an exact tie between PC and NDP in Calgary-Glenmore. There will be a recount by a judge, if still tied, the election will be called unconclusive and a by-election called for the seat. Also, Chestermere-Rocky View has a few boxes of votes to still count and it's too close between PC and WR). There is already one by-election to call in Calgary-Foothills, to replace resigning Premier, PC leader and MLA Jim Prentice. After the recount, PC candidate loses 3 votes, NDP one gains 3, so NDP wins Calgary-Glenmore by 6 votes. So, NDP 54, Wildrose 21, PC 10, Liberal 1, AP 1. |
