FEDERAL ELECTION RESULTS IN 🇨🇦 CANADA See a Boost in Voter Turnout! 🔥
🗣️ The dust has settled on the 2025 Canadian federal election, and it looks like more than 68% of eligible voters across the land participated in the democratic process, casting over 19.5 million ballots! 🗳️
🤨 While this year's turnout came close to expectations, it didn't quite reach the record-breaking 79.4% set way back in March 1958. Yet, it's the highest turnout since the 1993 federal election, which saw a whopping 69.6% voter participation! 📊
🤓 Breaking down the numbers, Elections Canada reports that around 11 million Canadians hit the polls or their long-term care facilities on election day, with about 7.3 million more casting their votes at advance polls, and 1.2 million voting by special ballot. 🗺️
🙅♀️ Unfortunately, Elections Canada doesn't gather demographics data, so we can't say which specific groups turned out to vote. However, they mentioned that post-election surveys can identify which communities encountered obstacles in voting and propose solutions for future elections. 🤔
🥁 And the winners are... 🏆 The Liberal party took home 43.7% of the total vote and 169 seats, while the Conservatives secured 41.3% of the vote and 144 seats. The Bloc Quebecois and the NDP both garnered 6.3% of the vote, with 22 seats for the Bloc and 7 seats for the NDP. 💥
