As Rick Anderson notes, the only party to gain in Atlantic Canada (percentage wise) was the Greens and the NDP. Yes, you have to factor in NL into the equation, but this could still be a slight indication that 130 will be the magic number after all if the Tories under perform in in Quebec and hold steady in Ontario.

The blue wave's getting a little bigger as Ontario comes in.

BTW, who ends up representing Nfld in cabinet? Do they have a Conservative senator?

Peter MacKay had been the minister for PEI so now thay Gail Shea is taking that job over, MacKay could be minister for NL.
