  1. O’Toole was also a moderate candidate but he didn’t have success in Ontario. It comes down to running the better campaign and being able to handle attacks

    1. O’Toole flip flopped on issues during the campaign and had a lack of charisma. He also didn’t have the luxury of a strong NDP to split the progressive vote. The federal and Ontario provincial elections were totally different

    2. as someone who voted liberal federally and PC provincially, Doug Ford has a grip on his party, he kicked MP’s out and didn’t coddle them…

    1. Why? Because polling is mostly corrupt, giving results the customer wants, not what is actually real.

    2. I think it might be the record low turnout, generally low turnout favours the PCs. Not that I’m complaining about 4 more years of getting things done

  2. the lesson being is that Torys can just ignore the freedumbers and still win. Win by bigger numbers too

  3. It was funny to see the liberals and ndp attacking doug taking his name more than anyone else. Thats the worst political strategy. They must’ve focused on what the offered and not to make doug a villain. By taking his name they made him look more powerful

  4. O’Toole was also a moderate candidate but he didn’t have success in Ontario. It comes down to running the better campaign and being able to handle attacks

  5. I disagree with Nanos’ assertion that additional positive factors in the Conservative victory are the resignations of Horwath and Del Duca. If the Liberals and NDP come out of this with strong, dynamic leaders, they did the best they could in the face of a beatdown at the polls. The Liberals and NDPs worst-cases all involve scenarios in which Horwath and Del Duca remain party leaders.
