Good evening, B.C.! This is Justin McElroy, CBC Vancouver's Municipal Affairs Reporter, checking in.
I'll be focusing tonight on the 42 electoral districts in British Columbia — 26 in and around Vancouver, seven on Vancouver Island, and nine in the rest of the province.
Polls close here at 7 p.m. local time (10 p.m. ET), making it the last place in the country to report results.
Most of the time, that means a government has been decided by the time ballots get counted in earnest out here, but given the uncertainty in the polls, B.C. may determine whether the Liberal or the Conservative Party holds more leverage in a minority government scenario.
There are a lot of ridings up in the air, but ones we'll be paying special attention to include Vancouver-Granville, where Jody Wilson-Raybould is seeking re-election as an independent, and Burnaby North-Seymour, home to the terminus of the Trans Mountain Pipeline, and where Liberal MP Terry Beech is trying to hold on against NDP icon Svend Robinson.
And, of course, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh and Green Leader Elizabeth May both have seats in B.C., meaning we'll be hearing plenty from the west coast all night long.
