@observantTrapezium there were a few withdrawn or non-replaced candidates. I think there was an OLP candidate who endorsed the NDP candidate as they were withdrawing, forget exactly where.
I totally agree on the Crombie/Stiles fake agenda though. They can have a great collaboration, forming many unity govts, even if they can't align how their parties work or some of their principles.
@observantTrapezium it's equally fair to blame the 2nd place candidate for spoiling the campaign of the 3rd.
For this election, the OLP and NDP were further apart on principles that they have been for 20y.
The OLP leader Crombie is further to the economic right than recent OLP leaders.
If the NDP and OLP can agree that Ontario should exist to benefit people, then they can merge. The OLP often veers into thinking Ontario should benefit only the rich.
