Surprised that CTV London/Windsor has live coverage from their studios with anchors and reporters in the field on line. 
CTV Kitchener just has an animated graphic with constant updates in Waterloo Region/Guelph.

This happens a lot, but if the polls close at 8, they should close as close to 8 as possible, with only the final few in line getting in to vote. Waiting over an hour (and more) for any results in Toronto is pretty disgraceful. 

Are you serious? Everyone who's in line in time gets to vote.

I agree but there has to be a point when those who arrived after 8 PM don't get to participate..

Yes, that's how it works. 

CHCH is doing very well, good graphics, studio guests and reporters at main candidate headquarters.  They are also covering a big geographic area from Halton Hills, Brantford, Norfolk, Halidmand counties and all of Niagara region in addition to Hamilton.

At least their Rogers TV station in Kitchener has actual reporters speaking. It feels like CTV Kitchener must be too cheap to have their anchors or reporters out there covering the election coverage in the Tri-Cites.

CP24 was very extensive, but very messy. Overly produced with too many needless elements for the on-air staff and control room crew to stumble over. Global was unwatchably cheap-looking in its presentation... hope Bell doesn't fully lean into tacky virtual sets like Corus. CBC was doing its classic dull CBC things. City was sterile and lifeless, zero personality, a sad shell of its former self. CHCH was good!

In addition to an already late night, CFRB's Jerry Agar starts his show at 9 AM Tuesday, sharing time with Bill Carroll on the results of the election. 

Meanwhile, Deb Hutton gets the day off after fronting the coverage on Monday. She's been replaced for the day by Mark Twohey, who has actually run election campaigns and has worked at City Hall. So his insights could be valauble.

CP24 definitely had the best election coverage by far. Their graphics were excellent, easy to read and constantly updated plus the different region reports worked well. Their talent had it together and presented well and I liked the panel hosted by Liz West featuring John Moore, John Tory and Kristyn Wong-Tam.

The CBC’s coverage was not as good. They didn’t make effective use of graphics and it felt a bit like they were winging it, which I guess can be expected, but they weren’t that good at it. I also felt that they stretched things a bit too much while waiting for the results to start coming in.

I also listened to some radio coverage, which I appreciate being there! I thought CFRB did a not bad job and Zoomer AM740 was lively and very entertaining!

Zoomer did a good job last night.
I think they were broadcasting live from somewhere.
If 740's music format does'nt work out, I think zoomer should go all talk and 640 should be mojo radio again.
Second best, even without moore and vasi was 1010.
I avoided the cbc because they will just praise chow non-stop.

It might have been Frank Leo...
