B.C. NDP Leader David Eby says he is preparing for every possibility as he awaits the outcome of the province’s still-undecided election race.
As of Tuesday, the race is still too close to call as just a handful of votes separate the NDP and the Conservative Party of B.C. in key ridings.
Both parties have 40 confirmed seats each, the Green Party of B.C. has two and there are 11 ridings that could still flip to either the Conservatives or the NDP depending on the results of mail-in ballots and recounts.
Recounts in two ridings — Surrey City Centre and Juan de Fuca-Malahat — and a tally of 49,000 absentee and mail-in ballots are set to begin this Saturday.
That means an NDP majority, a Conservative majority, or a minority for either party with the support of the Greens could be in the cards.
