Who needs a house out in Hackensack? Is that all you get for your money?

Typo posted:

this is actually one of the improbably worst outcomes imo

the worst outcome is for anyone to emerge victor but with the aura of illegitimacy around him/her

it is truly amazing how stupid the pc party is for them to gently caress up so much

If it's not Doug Ford he's not going to shut up the entire election about how the leader isn't really the leader because of vote fixing or whatever.

There was no good outcome. The party is in shambles and all manner of issues have been raised about the memberships and candidate nomination processes. Adding another week to the leadership campaign at the 11th hour, to try and push in-person voting to ridings province wide, would have been an enormous clusterfuck as well.

I'm eager to see how badly savaged their online voting system gets, and how long it takes before all their member verification data gets leaked, because dollars to donuts it's sitting in some unsecured Amazon storage bucket.

If it does get hacked, we probably won't even learn about it until a couple of years later.

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

I'd say that if Ford win's that just a clear for Wynne to just continue being Premier, I don't see the rest of Ontario agreeing to a Ford leadership.

I feel like the Liberals would run ads comparing Ford to Trump... I'm not sure if that would help or hurt him.

The people in this province or the people of Toronto?

I've lived in various corners of Ontario but not in Toronto or it's outskirts, I just don't see the rest of Ontario coming to his side. Then again, Toronto is the real sale.

OTOH there's a history of the PCs loving up races they should have had in the bag and handing it to the Liberals. This would certainly fit that pattern.
