40 seats counted for both the NDP (mildly social democrat) and the Q Anon BC Conservative Party. NDP leads in 6, BCCP leads in 5. 47 needed for a majority government.

For some fucking reason the "final count" isn't going to happen until this weekend .

There's reason for cautious optimism, as the NDP has always performed better with mail-in / absentee ballots than on election night, analysis here.

However, in that article, buddy crunches the numbers and concludes it's unlikely going to be enough to flip any close conservative ridings (such as Kelowna Centre, which BCCP astonishingly only won by ~150 votes). ALSO however, Juan de Fuca was only taken by NDP with 20 FUCKING VOTES.

There's an average of ~500 mail-in absentee ballots per riding to count this weekend.

So, all week my family is wondering whether or not our kid is going to learn about climate change in school or not, or whether we're going to be governed by a party with people who post Q Anon tier shit-post memes to Facebook and said that (CW: racism)

The Greens (who won two seats) have said they're likely willing to prop up the NDP with a supply-and-confidence agreement (as they did after the 2017 election) but nobody can make an actual decision until we know if any of these close seats are going to flip to another party this weekend.
