So far at least the losers are as much the Conservatives as the Liberals. I think they hoped to win Chilliwack-Hope, or at least finish a strong second. We seem to be getting the perfect split there.

18% lead in a riding we have never won in the history of the province. NOT BAD!

In both ridings the NDP vote is up about 10% from the 2009 election.
I think we can call Port Moody, and Chilliwack-Hope is looking pretty good.

Still depends on where those missing polls are, however the lead is beginning to look insurmountable. Of course that's what Rahim Jaffer thought when he gave his victory speech in 2008.

Looks like the NDP will win both ridings and the BCC finish third in both. Great night for the NDP! When was the last time they won Chilliwack?
Never! Even in 1972 when the NDP won 39 seats and Social Credit was reduced to 10 seats one of those 10 was Chilliwack!
I would have thought the Conservatives would have done better in Chilliwack? What happened?
