Reaction to 2006 General Elections

It's just before midnight and none of the party leader has spoken. So, no comment yet on potential parliamentary machinations. Only my reaction to races won and lost. Newfoundland (7 seats): 4 Liberals to 3 Conservatives. Tories gained one by winning the open seat in Avalon. Nova Scotia (11 seats): 6 Liberals, 3 Conservatives, 2 New Democrats. No change from 2004. Prince Edward Island (4 seats): 4 Liberals. No change from 2004. New Brunswick (10 seats): 6 Liberals, 3 Conservatives, 1 New Democrat. Liberals kept the open seat in Moncton. Tories gained a seat in Tobique-Mactaquac, defeating the Liberal Caucus Chairperson. Atlantic Canada: 16 Liberals, 9 Conservatives, 3 New Democrats. Two Liberal incumbents (Matthews and Brison) who used to be Progressive Conservative M.P. were reelected.
