  • Comment Can you tabulate the Elections prior to provincial political parties as has been done for Manitoba? I don't think this list can be said to be comprehensive until you've done this! --G Rutter 20:22, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    There were no political parties in BC prior to 1903, hence why pre-1903 elections are not included in the "Summary of results by party" table... it wouldn't make sense! There are linked via the section below, so the list is definately comprehensive (just rather boring before 1903). However, I have shifted the "notes" section below the pre-1903 material, so that it links togther better. Tompw 20:53, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    I've just realised you mean the government/oposition table... will look at Elections BC and see if there's details. Tompw 20:58, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support Excellent! Sorry for not making myself clearer originally; I had also checked to see whether it would be possible! --G Rutter 22:23, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - The reference was just to the general election site rather than to the historical stats, but I fixed that for you. Otherwise excellent list. --Arctic Gnome 18:53, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
