If Stone’s re-election in his third term were ever in doubt, the polls would be closed early, but Stone won with at least 55% of the vote in each election.By the time we called him for Stone, he was leading again with 52% of the vote with 28 of the 97 polls reported. It looks like the NDP and the Green Party have split the opposition vote They poll 18 percent for the Greens and 30 percent for Anna Thomas of the BC NPD
In 2017, Stone crushed all other candidates with 15,465 votes – more than double the NDP which only got 6,072 votes It was the same story in 2013, when Stone got almost 15,000 votes against Tom Friedman of the NDP with 9204
