To think we could’ve had Nathaniel Erskine-Smith thrashing Doug Ford instead of this

Umm... you do know that three of the four Niagara ridings are NDP, right? The Liberals aren't in the picture down here; all non-PC votes must go orange to keep the PCs out. And. of course PC candidates have no bothered to show up to debates -- they never do. The PCs broke democracy in Ontario and they want to keep it that way. Niagara West's Sam Oosterhoff is sure to retain his seat for the PCs.

The Liberals are still trying to win Niagara seats even though they don’t have much chance in St. Catharines or NC

They have no chance, period. It's a two-way race and they know it. It's unusual for me to advocate strategic voting, but seven years of Ford can do that to a person. Ford is about as corrupt as they come. The PCs are Ontario's mafia -- but many Ontarians seem to like it that way.

Not to nitpick but I believe it should be called “Schwagate”, they officially renamed Oshawa to The Schwa sometime in the 90s I believe

You would think that Ford’s pitiful record would speak for itself to get people off their butts and into a voting booth. I’m voting liberal to try to unseat the conservative candidate here (I refuse to call them progressive conservatives, there’s nothing progressive about them except for progressively making this province inhospitable).

If she doesn’t win her seat is she done?

We could've had Nate, FFS.

I'm getting a ton of ads from the Ontario Greens. Maybe it's my algorithm. Usually on podcasts, YouTube, and Duolingo even. I've seen a few from Ford, but nothing like the Greens. I can't think of a single ad from the other parties. Just me?

I'm curious to see if it makes a difference.

As an aside, how come you aren't getting stuff from the Ontario Party? I am a card carrying Liberal, volunteer, the whole 9 but for some reason the Ontario Party thinks i am their kinda voter. Eeek.
