Our readers and contributors are advised that rabble is adhering to the Canada Elections Act that strictly prohibits "premature transmission of results" until the last polls have closed in every electoral district in the country.
According to the Elections Canada website: "No person shall transmit the result or purported result of the vote in an electoral district to the public in another electoral district before the close of all of the polling stations in that other electoral district."
Commenters or babble participants found to be violating these rules will result in an immediate suspension of their rabble accounts.
From east to west, poll closings (local time) are as follows:
Newfoundland - 7:30 p.m.
Atlantic - 8:30 p.m.
Eastern - 9:30 p.m.
