@Ulrich_the_Old @moormaan ... worth adding: in an election where polling places were cut by 75% in the province's biggest city*, and new provincial legislation muzzled opponents from placing the usual ads in run up to the election.

* edit: see comment on this thread re: cutting of polling places (not done by Ford government)
@deborahh @Ulrich_the_Old @moormaan Ford is terrible and corrupt, but for clarity he does not control Elections Ontario polling site decisions. EO is an non-partisan independent agency (Elections Canada too), and it was COVID-related voter space decisions that were a big part of that consolidation of locations in one riding, Toronto Centre.
Just wanted to clarify that piece for anyone reading who's unfamiliar with how elections work in Canada, as I work with EO & EC during elections.
@c_9 @Ulrich_the_Old @moormaan thanks! I will edit it.
