John Robarts lost in very area. Compared with 1963, when they elected 77 members with 1,052,740 votes--49 per cent of the poll -- the Conservatives Tuesday managed to elect only 69 members on 1,017,384 votes --42 per cent of the poll. Figures compiled by The Ca- nadian Press are based on 16,- 656 of 16,738 polls, 99.5 per cent. 'The Liberals, who elected 28 candidates this time compared with 24 in 1963 and remain the official Opposition under new leader Robert Nixon, also dropped off in the popular vote, earning only 32 per cent-- 768,346 votes--compared with 35 per cent--764,724 votes--in 1963. The big gainer all around was the New Democratic Party head ed by Donald MacDonald, which elected 20 members compared with seven in 1963 and increased its percentage of the vote to 26 per cent from 15 in 1963. This year NDP candidates drew 623,165 votes, almost double the 336,290 they earned in 1963. Other candidates, including NDP BIG GAINER ALL AROUND Wednesday, October 18, 1967 3 THE OSHAWA TIMES, the few fielded by the Social Credit and Communist organiza- tions and a handful of independ- ents, drew less than one per cent of the vote, a total of 5,118. None was elected. Despite miserable, wet weath- er throughout the pravince, one of the highest percentage turn- outs in recent years was re- corded as about 65 per cent of the eligible voters cast ballots. With 99.5 per cent of polls re- ported, 2,414,013 votes were re- corded compared with 2,165,773, 62 per cent of those eligible, in 1963. In 1961, 64.5 per cent of the eligible voters voted.
