Sandra Pupatello and Kathleen Wynne confirmed their frontrunner status, emerging with about 1/4 of the total percentage of delegates. Pupatello was in front with 27.44%, Wynne earned 25.20% and in order following them were Gerard Kennedy at 13.99%, Harinder Takhar at 13.28%, Charles Sousa at 10.78% and Eric Hoskins at 5.66%. Ontario Liberals will chose their next leader and the province's next premier on the weekend of Jan. 25 at a convention to be held in downtown Toronto. |
