Of course there were issues. It's that no-one has written about them yet. Please help improve this article by contributing a "main issues" section. Ground Zero | t 21:21, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Results are inaccurate?[edit]

The current version of the article says the Liberals won 191 seats, but other sources (including Wikipedia's article on Louis St. Laurent) say 190. The Parliament of Canada site says 190, and it also has popular vote numbers that differ from that of the Wikipedia article ([1]). Wikipedia says the Liberals received 2,874,813 votes (less than 50% of the total) while the Parliament site says the Liberals received 2,929,391 votes (more than 50% of the total).
