We should know the final results of the provincial election on Monday.
In an update from Elections BC, they say they’re dealing with about 30 per cent more mail-in and absentee ballots than they had expected – about 65-thousand to be counted.
Two recounts are being done this weekend in the Surrey City Centre and Juan de Fuca-Malahat ridings won by the NDP, where the margin of victory was less than 100 votes.
In addition, a partial recount is also being done in Kelowna-Centre where there was a minor problem with a vote tabulator.
The New Democrats currently have 46 seats while the Conservatives have 45 with 47 as the magic number to achieve a majority.
The Green party won two seats and could hold the balance of power.
