@chris so get to finish Antiques Roadshow before any real results come in - oh, the irony

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸

Why the heck am I interested in this election in a province I've only driven through 4 times in my life t's because the right-leaning party in power, the Sask Party, is facing a challenge for the first time in a long time from the left.

The current Premier Scott Moe is also steadfast in his stumping for fossil fuels 2nd only to Alberta.

A loss by SKP could also signal trouble for Federal CPC who takes the prairies for granted as easy wins.

@MatWright ha!

Third spruce tree on the left

@chris ANd its a very welcome trend.

Last year Manitoba turfed its nutbar PC party. BC just held its nutbar PC party at bay - barely. NB just turfed its nutbar PC party - Im not so hopeful for Nova Scotia next month.

And I really hope in Ontario Ford gets sacked by a horrendous scandal, but he seems completely bulletproof somehow Im really depressed.

@chris @MatWright counting by hand?? alright, gonna be a long night then ️

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸

The majority needed is 31. The Sask Party is currently at 30 and the NDP is at 6. 24 to go all urban ridings.

We'll see if there is enough of a late push to prevent what seems like an automatic win just with the rural ridings.

TIL

"Sask Party advocated hard for 3 additional constituencies in 2011. Criticism was that this allowed rural ridings to outnumber Saskatoon & Regina" via @pinhman

@LALegault still early. They just pointed out that the NDP vote in Scott Moe's riding, a safe SKParty seat was up by more than 10%.

@chris New Brunswick washed out Higgs and his right wingers out of government. Let's hope the same thing happens in #Saskatchewan.

@chris @neutron_chick and if it ends up being as tight as BC could be next year before a final result is Horse and Buggeyed to the LG for someone to form government (sarc) - I have very good friends in Sask, who hate the hand count system (use it as a back up, sure, but this should be called by now)

@chris @LALegault I fear the voters of my province are more interested in oppressing trans kids than having a working healthcare or education system...

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸

@MatWright @neutron_chick To their credit, the Elections SK website very clearly sets out *how* and *when* specific types of ballots are counted. After tonight, there is another count on Thursday of mail ballots and Final Count isn't until November 9th.

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸

@ianhecht @LALegault fingers crossed for you!!

@chris @LALegault

I had high hopes for my Saskatchewan friends, but so far... my hopes are low

Mat Wright

@chris @neutron_chick basically same as every province - although Elections BC claimed absentee were counted on E-day, until they were not (finalized today)

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸

@lowies @LALegault don't give up hope yet! Still 19 seats to come!

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸

@MatWright @neutron_chick yup
