Steven Del Duca appears to have a stranglehold on the Ontario Liberal leadership race after dominating the party’s weekend delegate elections. “I am truly humbled by the vote of confidence I have received from our party membership,” Del Duca said in a statement Sunday night. While Sunday’s results were still being tabulated, the unofficial tally from Saturday saw Del Duca supporters win 570 of 911 delegate spots up for grabs — or 62.5 per cent. Initial counting Sunday suggested that overall more than half of the elected delegates were committed to Del Duca. Despite that, Ford’s Tories, who trail the leaderless Liberals in some polls, are taking the Del Duca threat seriously.
