The 2011 Ontario general election was held on October 6, 2011, to elect members of the 40th Legislative Assembly of Ontario. The Ontario Liberal Party was elected to a minority government, with the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario (PC Party) serving as the Official Opposition and the Ontario New Democratic Party (NDP) serving as the third party. In the final result, Premier McGuinty's party fell one seat short of winning a majority government.
Under amendments passed by the Legislature in December 2005, Ontario elections were now held on fixed dates, namely the first Thursday of October every four years.[2] The writ of election was issued by Lieutenant Governor David Onley on September 7, 2011.
The election saw a then–record low voter turnout of 48.2%,[1] only to be surpassed by the 2022 Ontario general election with 43.53%.
