VICTORIA — British Columbians are awaiting the final tally of last week's razor-thin provincial election, with several ridings that could determine the next government still hanging in the balance.
Meanwhile, the elections authority will also conduct full recounts beginning on Sunday in two tightly contested ridings — Juan de Fuca-Malahat and Surrey City Centre — where the margin of victory in the initial tally was less than 100 votes. The final tally will then be completed on Monday with the counting of any remaining absentee ballots, with results updated on Election BC's website hourly on that day.
Juan de Fuca-Malahat and Surrey City Centre are both currently led by NDP candidates, but the margin for the former in the initial tally is only 23 votes while the latter has a margin of 93 votes.The B.C. Conservatives can win the narrowest of majorities of 47 seats by flipping both seats during the final count and maintaining their leads in all the ridings they currently hold.
