Some dark clouds too: Rahim Jaffer leads in Edmonton-Strathcona, which is bad news for the NDP’s hopes of an Alberta seat. And Thomas Mulcair is trailing in Outremont (very, very bad news for the NDP).
Fingers are still crossed here for the indomitable John Rafferty in Thunder Bay.
Update: Rafferty wins.
