In other words, this election was not won by the BC Conservatives, but mostly lost by the BC NDP.

The @Conservative_BC actually received 50,000 fewer votes than in 2024 (but won 20 more seats) because the @bcndp vote dropped by 275.000 (29%) while the @BCGreens got 23,000 more votes than last time (+13%) - still some ballots to be counted.

congratulations @SachaPeter as the MLA elect for Richmond Centre and @LDoerkson as the next Premier. Thank you Lawrence Chen and Calvin Dang for running as well. It was a disappointing defeat and I know my team did their best. The defeat is mine alone. Thank you everyone.

Astonishing to be making commitments to max donors and hiding them from everyone else

Lorne Doerkson knows his plan will cost you - so he's hiding from questions about it again today. He's holding private fundraisers instead, and promising his donors things that aren't in his platform. Doerkson's hidden plan: healthcare cuts and higher costs.

As in the 2024 provincial, “vote for the party, not the candidate” slogan is circulating on Chinese social media again. Both matter. This slogan raises an uncomfortable question: can these candidates withstand scrutiny of their own records?

Why does Lorne Doerkson have an open separatist in his inner circle? He's thanked Michael Henshall by name in the legislature. Meanwhile, Henshall is organizing for BC to join Alberta's separatist movement.

A quick reminder for people who have not yet voted: advance voting for Richmond Centre riding is now available at A.R. MacNeill and Richmond Secondaries.

I wasn't that surprised that Heather believed this when she wrote it in 2021, but I’m genuinely surprised that she's still defending it in 2026.

Isn't it the job of the Teachers Union president to defend teachers? Is Reid now vilifying teachers who were using drama for instruction, and a student who was simply playing the role of the protagonist in a dramatic presentation of To Kill a Mocking Bird?

Incredibly, @heathermaahs is defending her position on blackface. Shows exactly why Lorne barred her from going to her last local debate but let Warbus go

What? Blackface?! Where is the line for Doerkson? What would it take for him to stop protecting his candidate he admits is spreading hate?

I'm glad the rest of BC has noticed @HeatherMaahs and her awful views. One thing that's been missed: her blog post supporting a slave auction in a school, and **putting a student in blackface** in school productions of To Kill a Mockingbird. #bcpoli

How many people behind Trump have had to take out a loan to pay for care? You keep your for-profit system and we’ll keep ours public. Yet another reason why we need to reduce our overdependence on US trade, and fast.

Today is the first day of advance voting! Please vote and remind your family and friends to vote as well. My team and I sincerely hope we can count on your support so I can return to Victoria and continue serving Richmond with excellence.

How will Lorne Doerkson explain this $5 billion gap? Or will he continue to refuse to explain it at all.

If you give away billions in revenue, and add billions in spending, where do you make up the difference? Here is a review of the $5 billion in unexplained, unfunded BC Conservatives promises. bcndp.ca/releases/conservati… #bcpoli

I've watched a lot of debates, and I'll just say this - there was only one Premier on that stage tonight. David Eby is the only one with a serious plan for this province.

‘Mr. Doerkson is right. There are two sides to that ledger. He’s just forgotten to bring one of them tonight.’- boom! The Premier is right.

The BC NDP are the only party in British Columbia able to work with Prime Minister Mark Carney. David Eby got a deal signed to keep the tanker ban in place while getting billions of dollars of investment targeted for the province. #bcpoli

Residential school denial should have no place in a party that wants to lead BC. What does Lorne Doerkson think of this?

Conservative Health Critic Anna Kindy is clear: she supports two-tier healthcare. This would let the richest jump the line, pull workers out of the public system, and leave everyone else waiting longer. That's the conservative approach in Alberta - we can't afford it here.
