Islands, Vancouver-Little Mountain, Dewdney, Columbia River and

Kootenay.

Social Credit could oust

the NDP in Burnaby- Willingdon and Shuswap- Revelstoke. And the two-

Seat Surrey riding (one seat formerly held by Bill Vander Zalm, the other by New Democrat Ernie Hall) is anyone's guess.

Facts sheet

Standings in the legislature at dissolution were: Socreds 31, NDP 26.

The eight swing ridings, therefore, suggest the possibility of a photo-finish,

with only the thinnest of margins for either the Socreds or the NDP.

But given the

disillusionment expressed by many voters with eight years of increasingly acnmonious Socred-NDP polarization, plus the healthy oumber of “alternative” candidates fielded by the minor parties, a more dramatic result cannot be ruled out.
