Election Day in Ontario


Ontario voters head to the polling booths today amid uncertainty over the province's economic future.

Liberal Premier Dalton McGuinty, in seeking a third straight majority, has stressed his experience and competence.

And analysts suggest his ``steady-as-she-goes'' message has resonated with voters worried about another possible recession.

At the start of the campaign, polls indicated anger at McGuinty over several broken promises would sweep him from office.

However, analysts say neither the Tories nor New Democrats have offered voters a clear reason to vote for them instead.
