B.C Conservatives and NDP tied after provincial election results delayed (UPDATED)

There is no clear winner in Saturday’s provincial election, contrary to previous reports.

Analyst says BC election so close that lawyers might get involved.

He says the ballots might need to be hand counted because people won’t want to rely on “dominion voting machines”

John Rustad may be the new premier of British Columbia, as the B.C Conservatives scored big gains in the recent provincial election.

However, residents of the province don’t know for sure, as the results have been delayed and won’t be officially tallied until later in the month.

The official vote count at the time of writing puts the NDP slightly ahead of the B.C Conservatives. This contradicts polls that suggested the Conservatives were poised to win the election.

The NDP has faced accusations of voter fraud, and critics are demanding a recount in the case that they “officially” win the provincial election. These allegations have not been independently verified.

Rustad scored large gains in the polls after vowing to deport terrorist sympathizers that operate in the province, as was previously reported by Toronto 99.

Less than half of registered voters showed up to vote in the election.
