By the numbers: NDP Leadership Convention

TORONTO – After four rounds of voting, Thomas Mulcair has been elected the new leader of the federal NDP.

Mulcair took the final round of NDP leadership voting with 57 per cent support. Brian Topp, the only other candidate left in the field, garnered just 42 per cent of the vote.

Nathan Cullen was knocked off the ballot in the third round after receiving the fewest votes — 15,426 votes, or 24.6 per cent.
