Rejoice Liberals!

Down to third-party status federally. Teetering in Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia. In opposition everywhere else.

Except in PEI.

The province that makes up 9% of the federal Liberal caucus decides to stick with Ghiz:

Ghiz’s Liberals return to power in PEI

The Liberals came back to power with a reduced majority in Prince Edward Island Monday, leaving incumbent premier Robert Ghiz with a weaker hand to tackle the province’s looming financial problems.

The Grits were projected by The Canadian Press to win more than half of the legislature’s 27 seats, a clear victory but considerably fewer than forecast at the start of the campaign.

It appears that Canada's longest serving Premier is going down to defeat in PEI. Although young leaders have been flamming out across the country, 33 year old Robert Ghiz will be taking over as PEI's Premier.

So, for those keeping score on your 2007 election ballot, that gives incumbents a 2-1 record so far. (That is, if we're exceedingly generous and give Charest a win)
