People across Durham Region have been casting their ballots to elect the province’s next premier, but it’s unclear which party will win residents’ votes.

Resident Fraser Grant says he voted Liberal and supports incumbent candidate Joe Dickson, who has held the riding of Ajax-Pickering (now called Ajax) since 2007. “He has been a long-time resident here,” Grant said. “Liberals have been getting a bad kick in the cat for a bit, but I think Joe … does what he can for us.”
When asked how he would feel if Phillips took on the MPP role, Dickson said, “So be it. You go by what the public says.”

But Dickson says he feels he has earned more time in office. “I have worked longer and harder than any human being in this area in the last 12 years,” he said.
Residents across the province will be able to cast their ballots until the polls close at 9 p.m.
