Conservatives win in Ontario
The popular vote in Ontario was:
- Conservatives 40.6% (+9.3%)
- NDP 33.7% (+9.9%)
- Liberals 19.3% (-19.4%)
- Greens 4.6% (-0.2%)
The seats are:
- Conservatives 76 (+48)
- NDP 40 (+19)
- Liberals 7 (-51)
- Greens 1 (+1)
So a comfortable win for the Conservatives. The Liberals lose recognition as an official parliamentary party as the threshold is eight MPs.
The outgoing Premier has held onto her seat by only 181 votes. She has resigned as Liberal Leader.
