From Chaput of the Greens, “Congratulations to Vic Fedeli for his re-election. I look forward to seeing him work with community leaders across party lines to fight for Nipissing!“
-----
This is very sad, voter turnout in Nipissing is 35.13%.
-----
Fedeli has twice the votes of NDP Loren Mick, Fedeli has 12,136 effectively ending the race in Nipissing.
-----
Results so far show Fedeli with 10,711, Loren Mick of the NDP second with 5,214 and Liberal Liam McGarry who never set foot in the riding in third with 2,541. Colton Chaput in third with 812. Libertarian Michelle Lashbrook 327 and Scott Mooney of the Ontario Party with 314.
-----
Colton Chapsut of the Green Party has conceded and sent a congratulatory message to Fedeli.
-----
Fedeli has been called the winner in Nipissing. People are starting to roll into the Davedi Club to celebrate.
-----
Doug Ford has won a majority.
-----
Sorry folks we are having trouble getting local results up. Being worked on as we speak.
-----
The Liberals have started out strong provincially, winning 5 seats to the PC 2 but it's still very early.
-----
I voted over lunch today, usually a busy time for poll workers. There were only five other people there. Worker said it had been slow in the morning also.
----
The election campaign this time lacked any kind of excitement. Advance voting was down and I'd be surprised if it broke 50%...more likely to be in the forties I think. Polls close in eight minutes. PC Vid Fedeli is the overwhelming favourite.
-----
The night is starting out slowly. Here is Vic Fedeli's post-election party room at the Davedi Club at 8 p.m.
With 10 minutes till the polls close, nobody there.
