Been interesting to watch the seats swinging, it's going to definitely be close all night.

I'm curious how Polievre will do in his own riding, he is against a liberal Bruce Fanjoy who has actually done pretty well for himself and the early voting was counted first in that riding which had Bruce up a few votes so it'll be a matter of time to see how it actually goes since the early vote was said to be largely Liberal supporters.

Edit: oh my god he did it, he lost his seat to Bruce.

Can you imagine if, at 45 he has to make a resume and try to find a job for the first time?

Unless the knives come out for him as leader, a newly elected MP in a nice, safe western riding will likely step down and trigger a by-election for PP to carpetbag his way in. It still isn't official yet, but is still looking very much like a bunch of federal public servants in his riding didn't trust him not to sack them.

We're gonna lose our little PP in Ottawa.
