TORONTO — A strong majority of Ontarians want to give Kathleen Wynne’s Liberals a pink slip, according to a new DART Insight poll.

Eight in 10 of the Ontarians surveyed, or 81%, told the pollster that it’s time for another political party to run the province, and only 19% believe Wynne has done a good enough job to be re-elected.

A statement by DART Insight says that it polled voters during the “meltdown” of former PC leader Patrick Brown’s attempt to reclaim the party leadership.

PC members are currently voting for their next leader from four candidates – Tanya Granic Allen, Christine Elliott, Doug Ford and Caroline Mulroney.

“When given a choice as to who should govern Ontario, voters still preferred the Ontario PCs (44%) to do so versus the Ontario New Democratic Party (24%), the Ontario Liberal Party (19%) or another party of their choice (other 13%),” the firm says.

The poll was conducted on behalf of Newstalk 1010 between Feb. 19-27, involved almost 1,000 Ontario adults, and its results have a margin of error of plus or minus 3.6%.
