Some thoughts about #OntarioElection:
1. By making the election about nothing, Doug Ford used voter apathy to his advantage. He ran a peek-a-boo campaign that hid what Ontarians disliked about him. They minimized his negatives. Record low turnout always benefits Conservatives.

2. Great ideas and platforms do not matter if you are unable to effectively communicate them and build on them.
3. The Liberals were unable to build momentum and the media choose sides and built a narrative on Doug Ford being a changed man. I have never felt more failed by MSM.

3. The NDP ran for second place. They were never in it to form government. It was a sad and listless campaign that was too focused on negativity. This was Andrea Horwath’s 4th campaign as leader. Ontarians decided long ago she wasn’t Premier material. She has to go. #onpoli
4. The Liberals have to move away from the Wynne/McGuinty years. They have some amazing candidates, who won and lost to rebuild the party and brand: we should build around candidates like @tylerwatt90, @GregforPtbo, @jillpromoli, @MitzieHunter and rethink the Liberal Party.
5. I will not let Doug Ford turn Ontario into Alberta without a fight. We have to organize for rhe assault that we know is coming on education, healthcare, social services, and the environment. Be mad. Then dust yourself and get ready to stand up for the issues that matter.
