Who is taking her spot? Liberal or Conservative? I don’t know anything about Ontario politics.

She's Liberal so I think it will be Conservative (Doug Ford, Rob Ford's brother). But I'm hoping for NDP (Andrea Horwath). NDP always wins for my region but it's rare they win provincially. I think they have a decent shot this year though. People want change, and Doug Ford is basically our version of Trump.

Yeah, I just hope people are smart and don't repeat the US federal election and vote NDP. That will be better change. But so many people only seem to vote PC or Liberal.

If Ford comes in, I guess it will be entertaining... lol.

He's already involved in a whole bunch of scandals including how he handled his brother's estate.

For outsider, watching Rob Ford's antics was quite amusing.

The only party to not release a fully costed platform and the clown is going to win...

PS Rob is dead. His brother Doug somehow won the PC leadership.

So in a couple hours we get ready to find out if Ontario is going to be renamed to Ford Nation. #MBABA: Make Beer A Buck Again That's basically Ford's platform. lol.

Is Toronto really that conservative? Rob Ford was a head case. Like Trump, all what is bad about a person.

Yeah Toronto/GTA tends to lean either conservative or Liberal, and they practically decide for the rest of the province - or heck, country, when it comes to federal. So it's kinda annoying as there's not really a good proportional representation. North tends to be NDP. Though north eastern seems to be leaning Liberal/Conservative which is kind of odd.

Though The numbers are changing, I thought they had a definite majority but looks like that's not really determined till near the end.

I think the darker colours are confirmed while lighter are still counting. Not looking good though, most of GTA is blue. They have way more ridings/seats than the rest of the province.

damnit my cat just puked. At least she did it in the spare room. Closed the door so the rest can be contained in there too. She never does it only once.
