Ontario voter turnout hit a record low in 2022. Will this election be any different?

Ontario experienced its lowest voter turnout in history during the June 2022 election, with only 44 percent of eligible voters participating, leading to a victory for Doug Ford's Progressive Conservatives.
Experts predict that voter turnout may decline again in the upcoming February 27 election due to a perceived lack of competition and voter frustration.
Political scientists suggest that factors like Ford's early election call and winter travel could further hinder voter participation in Ontario.
Some voters express concerns about local issues, including housing affordability and healthcare access, indicating a need for more engagement and representation in the election.
