Toronto Centre & York Centre Byelections, 2020

[Midtown Urbanist]

Solid showing by Paul in Toronto Centre. It wouldn't surprise me if she runs in Guelph, which is Mike Schreiner's provincial seat, in the next federal election.

The close second face finish for Tiangson and the Conservatives shows the growing strength of the Filipino vote in the city.

I agree, Guelph could flip federally, and that would be a great narrative for the Greens, to begin making inroads in yet another province.

I imagine that the Filipino vote would be stronger in a normal election cycle too, as the more established Jewish electorate are probably more likely to vote during a by-election.
