The provincial election is not quite over yet, as Monday, Elections BC begins counting absentee ballots.  

Electoral officers for all 85 districts across BC are returning for one final count.  

Don Main with Elections BC says the number of absentee votes has doubled from the 2009 election.

"there's about 90,000 back then so we're looking at close to 180,000."

Main says these numbers could potentially change some close ridings.  

Christy Clark lost the Vancouver-Point Grey riding to the NDP's David Eby by just under 800 votes.  

Suzanne Anton in Vancouver-Fraserview, won against Gabriel Yiu by more than 500 votes.  

Main says the absentee ballot results could come as early as Wednesday afternoon.
