is for the LG to ask him if he thinks he can command the confidence of the house and for King to say yes. He may wish to wait until he has an agreement with the Greens or he may wish to go ahead without it and hope the Greens don't vote against his throne speech. A confidence and supply agreement is nice for a minority government to have but it's not essential and is actually the exception rather than the rule. It usually only happens if the incumbent Premier refuses to resign (as Miller, Clark, and Gallant did in Ontario, BC, and New Brunswick respectively) and the Opposition parties want to prove that there is an alternate government ready to take office following a no confidence vote.
462: 396: 742:(because it's one of the only ones which has all four parties plus an independent). I'm busy today and probably won't be able to get to all of these and I definitely won't be around tonight once results start coming in, but they're there for whoever wants to use them. Elections PEI doesn't have a placeholder results page up but they will later in the day, so that source will need to be added. I don't know if or when expenditures will be posted. 295: 277: 386: 482: 355: 246: 190: 824:
He's not the premier-designate until the incumbent resigns and the lieutenant-governor designated King as premier-designate. That hadn't happened last night. It may happen today. There needn't be a coalition or confidence and supply agreement for King to be premier-designate, all that needs to happen
582:
Hm. My comment was before the election, and now I find myself disagreeing with myself. No New Democrats were elected, only one of their candidates placed better than last place, counting independents, and it wasn't their leader. It's their worst showing since 2007, and they only ran candidates in 15
847:
I'm not sure if that's exactly true since the incumbent lost his own seat, but I agree it's safe to wait for the LG's official declaration. King and Bevan-Baker were both interviewed on the CBC's PEI radio station this morning and both said they're not intending to form coalitions but just looking
806:
He's not the Premier-designate unless the Greens come out and indicate they will back the PCs though a coalition or through confidence and supply. Right now, we don't know who the Premier will be. Knowledge is not a crystal ball. It's very unfortunate that the media has decided to declare a winner

who lost his seat in 1948 while his party was re-elected. Unlike Bourassa and King, who became Premier, and remained PM respectively, before winning their respective by-elections, Drew resigned as Premier (four months after the election) because he decided to switch to federal politics. He didn't
1203:
Oh never mind, it doesn't work reliably by county either. We could feasibly do east (districts 1-7), central (districts 8-20), west (21-27)? And/or still separate out Charlottetown. Or maybe it should just be a single list. Elections PEI doesn't help, they just list all the districts in order by

If Wade MacLauchlan refuses to resign, a confidence and supply or coalition agreement between the Greens and Tories may be useful in the lead up to a no confidence vote but given that the Liberals came in a poor third and he lost his own seat it's highly unlikely MacLauchlan will try to test his
1098:
Actually, the lieutenant general cannot dismiss MacLauchlan unless the parliament declares no confidence in his government or declares confidence in an alternative premier. Until then, the lieutenant governor would need to be assured that King has the confidence of the house to appoint him as

It looks like a number of page moves are needed for ridings whose names/boundaries have changed since the last election. I was about to update Template:PEI-ED but I found some of the situation of some of the ridings confusing, so I bailed out of the task rather than get something wrong.
1170:
Good point, where did we get these regions from? They roughly line up with the federal districts, but yeah, Brackley-Hunter River is not in Charlottetown. Stanhope-Marshfield is maybe debatable, but the electoral commission made a point of separating districts along municipal borders for

It seems the general rule is not always followed. In BC, every election since 2001 includes the Greens in the infobox despite them not recieving seats until 2013. They have been in provincal debates for some time though. I also note that the NDP appear in the infobox for the
613:
The general rule from other provincial elections is that they have to win a seat to be in the infobox. Hence why the Greens are usually excluded. We have added a party post-election before if they win a seat. The NDP did not. Thus they should not be in the infobox.
543:
Yes, they should. They're a pretty minor party in PEI but tend to get equal coverage in local news sources, owing to the fact they're connected to a major national party. That and there are only four registered parties in PEI so might as well include them all.
848:
forward generally to working together, which is a very Island approach to the whole thing. Of course, my interpretation of what two guys said on the radio isn't a reliable source. Almost every media outlet is referring to King as premier-designate though.

Thanks. All good points, before and after the election. I tend to think their participation in the debates is a big indicator they should be included, but I take your points about their poor showing.--
