Polls have closed across British Columbia as ballot counting begins in the BC Provincial Election. Voters headed to the polls today (Oct. 24) to elect 93 members of the Legislative Assembly, each representing an electoral district, or riding, in the provincial legislature.

Elections BC has confirmed that votes cast today (Oct. 24) will be tallied manually.

It says paper ballots cast at advance polling stations and at district electoral offices will be counted with electronic tabulators, and it expects those results to be reported first.

Elections BC also says the election-night count will not include absentee or mail-in ballots, which will be tallied at the final count scheduled in November.
