Welcome to LIVE coverage of the #peipoli election day by @repdonsman456 bringing you the earliest and most accurate race calls!

We've seen a whirlwind campaign, and now it's finally time to sit back, relax, and enjoy the initial returns, as they continue to flow in.
Here's some early analysis for you, coming in the form of small tidbits: if the @ndp_pei somehow do end of holding the balance of power (and have to negotiate a coalition/cross-party, power-sharing agreement) they're likely going to...
...insist on respecting any successful or near-passing #PRonPEI referendum vote, albeit unlikely. And they will MOST PROBABLY get their way: the issue is far more of a priority for the island's NDP than it could ever go in the other direction!
And here's how we start this night:

And that looks like the finalized results, folks!

PC 12, Green 9, Liberal 5 with next month's by-election in Charlottetown-Hillsborough Park, triggered after the tragic passing of @PEIgreens candidate Josh Underhay...
...slightly leaning towards the @PEIPCParty at this particular moment. It will also be interesting to see who decides to get appointed (or wins the nomination) from each party and becomes their chosen standard-bearer in this crucial race.
That's all with me for tonight, it seems. We'll be back very soon to give you even more juicy analysis on the exciting #peipoli election results we've seen tonight, as well as any topics you may have selected earlier. Adieu!
