Revised in light of the latest recount: The Liberals missed a majority by 153 votes (75 in Windsor-Tecumseh-Lakeshore and 78 in Nunavut).

Update given the latest numbers: The Liberals needed an additional 357 votes for a majority (45 in Terrebonne, 78 in Nunavut, and 234 in Windsor-Tecumseh-Lakeshore).

By my calculation, the Liberals missed their majority by 623 votes (233 in Windsor-Tecumseh-Lakeshore, 77 in Nunavut, and 310 in Vancouver-Kingsway).

Absolutely correct. My first draft talked of successors who led the party to a majority in the subsequent election, but somewhere along the line "majority" was changed to "victory."

Opinion: Federal parties must resurrect their succession planning for prime ministers William Lyon Mackenzie King and Lester Pearson both promoted talent within the Liberal Party, many of whom became ministers and party leaders
