1/8 🚨 Ontario’s election just proved AGAIN how broken our voting system is.
Doug Ford’s PCs won a "majority" government with just 43% of the vote. That means 100% of the power was handed to a party rejected by 57% of voters. #ONpoli

First-past-the-post lets a party with far less than majority support dominate the legislature while opposition votes are wasted.
The results? A government that doesn’t truly reflect what voters wanted. #ProportionalRepresentation
🟦 PCs: 43% of the vote → 64.5% of seats
🟥 Liberals: 29.9% of the vote → just 14 seats
🟨 NDP: 18.6% of the vote → 27 seats (Official Opposition)
🟩 Greens: 4.8% of the vote → 2 seats
Democratic? Not even close. #ONpoli
🔹 PCs: 55 seats (vs. 76)
🔹 Liberals: 38 seats (vs. 14)
🔹 NDP: 24 seats
🔹 Greens: 6 seats
🔹 Independent: 1 seat
A government that actually represents voters. #ProRep #ONpoli
With just 45.4% turnout, Ford’s “majority” is supported by only 20% of eligible voters.
Many feel forced to vote for the lesser evil or don’t vote at all—because under FPTP, their vote often doesn’t count. #ONpoli
âś… NDP: Supports Mixed Member Proportional Representation (MMP)
✅ Greens: Support PR + a Citizens’ Assembly
❌ Liberals: Refused to commit to PR—despite Bonnie Crombie previously supporting a Citizens’ Assembly. #ProRep
No more fake majorities. No more wasted votes. No more parties winning 100% of the power with only 40% support.
It’s time for politicians to put voters first and adopt proportional representation. #ONpoli
the decision making would change.
Your argument is based on projections that can't logically be trusted.
all the best.
