# riding where one party is projected to win 100% of the time
35 (32 NDP, 3 Lib)


Also, here are the latest projections, using the poll from Angus-Reid released today (April 24th). Riding-by-riding projections are here. The 3 points picked-up by the Liberals are really helping. Indeed, with these numbers, there is one scenario (out of 1000) where the BC Liberals would get 40 seats while the BC NDP would get 43. So the race is slightly closer now. If the trend goes on next week, we could actually have some suspense.
