The 2018 Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario leadership election was held on March 10, 2018,
[1]
[2] due to the resignation of party leader
Patrick Brown on January 25, 2018, following allegations of sexual misconduct.
[3] Winner
Doug Ford narrowly defeated runner-up
Christine Elliott on the third ballot with 50.6% of allocated points.
The
Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario leadership election was scheduled for 3 months before the
2018 provincial election scheduled for June 7. It came after a turbulent year of disputed and allegedly fraudulent nominations contests across the province for local PC candidates.
[4] In two of these contests;
Ottawa West—Nepean and
Scarborough Centre the nominations were overturned after Brown's resignation and Brown's own nomination in
Barrie—Springwater—Oro-Medonte was cancelled.
[5] At the time of the leadership election
Newmarket—Aurora and five others remained under active investigation by the party
[6] and
Hamilton West—Ancaster—Dundas remained under police investigation.
[7]
According to Article 23.1 of the PC party constitution, when there is a vacancy in the position of leader, the party
caucus chooses an interim leader to serve until a new leader is elected in a leadership election, which must be held within 18 months of the vacancy occurring, and in which all party members can vote.
[8] Party president
Rick Dykstra told the media on January 25 that "a leadership election will take place at such time as the PC party shall determine in its discretion".
[9] The party executive met on January 26, 2018, following the caucus election, to determine whether to have a leadership election before the provincial election, and if so, how it would proceed, or whether to have the interim leader lead the party into the election,
[10] and called the leadership election for March 2018.

All party members are eligible to cast votes by
preferential ballot using electronic balloting, provided that they are members in good standing by February 16, 2018. To be eligible, one must be at least 14 years of age, a Canadian Citizen who is a resident of Ontario, and pay a $10 membership fee with personal funds (i.e. no corporation or union funds may be used).
The vote was weighted so that each of the province's ridings that has more than 100 votes cast are allocated 100 electoral votes; ridings in which fewer than 100 party members vote were weighted, but instead had the votes counted as individual votes.
[11] The lowest-ranked candidate were dropped from the next round as ballots are counted, and the first candidate to get 50 per cent of the votes was declared the new leader.
[11]
Candidates must be nominated by at least 100 party members, must agree to abide by the party's existing platform for the next election, and must be approved by the party's nominations committee as a PC candidate for the 2018 provincial election.
[12]
Method and Electronic Security
The voting method is solely
electronic voting with no other access methods. To cast a ballot, a three-part validation-vote was employed. First each eligible member had to register to vote with a code sent via regular mail. Second, each member who had registered had to validate their identity with one piece of
government issued identification by
uploading an image. Third, each qualifying member was provided a second access code to use during the voting period via the internet. The system was criticized by all candidates as overly complicated and difficult for elderly members and those with difficulties using or accessing computers.[

Doug Ford and Tanya Granic Allen raised concerns over the security and legitimacy of the vote. Ford stated he believed "party elites" and "the establishment" would try to steal the election and said "there should be security cameras on the servers".
[13] Past leadership candidate
Frank Klees said he had grave concerns about the integrity of the vote.

Simcoe North (2015–2018 as a Progressive Conservative and 2018–present as an independent) and a former Conservative MP for
Barrie (2006–2015). He was the leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario from 2015 until his 2018 resignation triggered this leadership election. Brown was expelled from the PC caucus hours before registering his candidacy on February 16, 2018.
[26] On February 21, 2018, the party's nominations committee approved Brown to seek the leadership in a 3 to 2 vote.
[176]
[177]
Brown planned to run on the full "People's Guarantee" platform, including a
carbon tax which would fund the platform, and which had been the intended 2018 election platform prior to Brown's resignation.
[178]
Brown withdrew ten days after announcing his candidacy, claiming that he and his family had been subjected to threats for entering the contest. His withdrawal occurred hours after reports surfaced that as leader he had directed top party officials: "get me the result I want", in a riding nomination that has subsequently become the focus of a
Hamilton Police Service investigation for alleged fraud and also the same day that the
Integrity Commissioner announced an investigation of Brown's travel expenses and other alleged financial improprieties.

Nippissing (2011–present), past leadership candidate (2015) and former mayor of
North Bay, Ontario (2003–2010). Fedeli told reporters that he will "let my name stand for leader of our party".
[9] After the party executive announced its decision to schedule a leadership election in March, Fedeli reiterated his intention to run for the permanent leadership.
[193] On January 30, 2018, however, he announced that he would not be running for the permanent leadership after all in order to focus on his duties as interim leader and correcting organizational problems within the party in the run up to the general election.
