The PCs improved both their seat count and their popular vote from 2018, a rare feat for incumbents running on a record in government that has been dissected and criticized daily.


By 11 p.m.., the Conservatives were leading in 83 ridings, the NDP in 31, the Liberals in eight, the Greens in one and an independent in one. A party needs at least 63 seats to capture a majority in the province’s legislature.
