    They just won a supermajority.

    Lost the popular vote though so of course BC is now run by a party that the majority of voters don't want.

    Lost the popular vote though

    I wish that were true, but the current count has BC Cons ahead by nearly 200,000 votes. 😢

    Adding up all the other party votes means the majority of BC voters did not vote for the BCCons. The majority of the province is being governed by a party they did not vote for.

    Not exactly an uncommon occurrence either, mind. FPTP is a complete and total farce and calling it democracy is a joke.

    "Lost the popular vote" is commonly understood to mean they aren't the party with the most votes. The conservatives were unarguably the party with the most votes. They won the popular vote.

    Im not a fan of this outcome either but don't try to spin the results by redefining terms.

    It’s devastating. And as bad as it is for my own trans family, Indigenous folks are in for even worse, nevermind the intersection of the two. 😭 I’ve been SO ANGRY at Eby and was braced for a Conservative majority, but not one this large. I don’t know what to do from here. I was already just barely holding myself together.

    BC is no longer trans safe, get away from here! Go to Manitoba and New Brunswick instead.

    Avoid pubs, save money, make plans, delete facebook, eat a balanced diet, workout and be more distrusting of people.

    The unjust harassment will increase now that the government has become the mouth piece of transphobes.

    Expect the BC Conservatives to gut GAC from MSP. Hell maybe the Yukon cons will feel brazen enough to follow suit.
