Nova Scotians are casting their votes Tuesday in a snap provincial election, but they won't learn the outcome until after 9 p.m. due to a delayed opening at a polling station.
CTV Atlantic will air special coverage of the provincial election beginning at 8 p.m. local time. It will also be livestreamed on atlantic.ctvnews.ca.
The election campaign wrapped up Monday after just over four weeks of campaigning.
Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Houston, who called the early election on Oct. 27, is seeking a second term as premier.
Election day takes place seven months before the fixed election date on July 15, 2025.
Houston said he called the early election because Nova Scotians deserve the chance to weigh in on the second phase of his party’s plan to turn the province into what he calls a “powerhouse.”
Liberal Leader Zach Churchill led his party through an election campaign for the first time. He says the Liberals have created a platform that can transform the lives of people in the province.
