Despite vowing to declare a new leader by 7 p.m. Thursday, the UCP now says results will be delayed.

"Voting at in-person locations this morning was steady but manageable," a statement from the party reads.The statement goes on to say more than 250 volunteers are carefully counting ballots now.Originally, the party planned to announce the first results of its preferential ballot shortly after 6 p.m.

If no winner received more than half the votes at that point, the next results, incorporating voters' second choices for leader, were to be announced less than 10 minutes later.Based on the party's original time frame, that means the first ballot results will likely be announced around 8 p.m.

Incompetence till the very end. That is the true legacy of the Kenney regime. Unbelievable incompetence at every level, on every file. Like clockwork

Expect CTV to scamper to the Liberal hack academics at Mount Royal University to see what this really means.

I hope Hillary Clinton wins.

I hope Trump wins.

And so it begins

Should’ve done it like the NDP where they only had 3500 members voting in the last election. 😂

Sounds like the UCP… isn’t that how the leadership review results went too

Opinion: Quebec’s election offers fresh evidence of how broken our electoral system isQuebec’s election offers fresh evidence of how broken our electoral system is We need ProportionalRepresentation Why cause the Liberals didn't win? We all know it's broken, that how we keep getting stuck with Trudeau! Pero el sistema electoral es igual para todos los participantes, el que votara el 41% del electorado no implica que sea necesario corregir el sistema de votación. Lo realmente preocupante es la baja participación electoral y la gran desmotivación del electorado.
