Elections BC CEO Anton Boegman taking questions now. Wouldn't answer directly but it sounds like we may not know the results of the election on election day because of the huge increase in mail in ballot. #bcpoli
Boegman says they are looking to recruit more volunteers. There are concerns there may not be enough volunteers due to COVID concerns. #bcpoli #COVID19BC
On postponing the election, Henry says there are 87 elections happening right now. If there are issues in one polling station or one riding the provincial health will work with Elections BC. #bcpoli
On calling an election before knowing about a second wave, Dr. Henry says the increase has been slow and steady and it is not up to her to determine when to call an election. #bcpoli #bcvotes
On when reporters can be in person, Dr. Henry says the press theatre is a small room and it’s not possible to have lots of reporters there. But outdoor events are safer for in person media. #bcpoli
