Voting areas locally and regionally redrawn in 2008 Redistribution

 Preliminary Results

To make sense of the poll by poll results need to have a map of the areas

 

For example 015 went to Pond (84) while Coons (54) and Girba (12)

016 was the area most pro Pond with 103 of 153 cast

 

Girba’s best showing was in poll 014 with 15 votes (this = poll 016 approximately in 2001-2005)

In 2009 Coons took 16 of 24 polls – and one of those lost (018) was by only one vote (66-10-67)

 

 

Looking at 2005 similar areas

Area 14 Belsey 71% or 125 votes

Area 15 Belsey 58% or 96 votes

Area 16 Coons 54% or 89 votes

 

Area 17 only 33% eligible voters and Belsey getting 41 and Coons 39

Area 35 almost as bad with 35% w Belsey getting 51 & Coons 78

 

Same geographic electoral areas as 2005

And 2001

Area 14 Belsey 77% or 180 votes

Area 15 Belsey 67% or 183 votes

Area 16 split 49% to 40% NDP of or 157 votes

 

Area 17 only 41% eligible voters and Belsey getting 45 and Fitzpatrick 39 of the votes

Area 35 did much better with 63% turnout w Belsey getting 84 & Fitzpatrick 50 votes of 154 total

North Coast 2009 results are preliminary--- New boundaries in 2008

 

 

Click Map on BC Elections site

I have added the (preliminary/ May 15th) to map results from this page

 

What I found interesting here is that the NDP took all the western marine ridings – new meaning to ‘Left Coast’

 

2001 Voting Area maps

and here is similar 2005

See the CBC profile of riding with recent voting history

 

I will return to this later looking at voting allegiances in specific areas within North Coast such as QCIs and the 1st Nations villages

Elections BC site map useful for finding older election materials
