Turnout numbers include those who voted by mail, at local election offices, by home visit, during advance voting, and on election day.

After polls close on election night, unofficial results are posted at elections.on.ca, showing the number of votes cast for each candidate. Once official tabulation takes place, from March 1 to 3, official results will give the total number of marked, declined, unmarked, and rejected ballots for each poll.

Unofficial results in the electoral districts of Mississauga—Erin Mills and Mushkegowuk—James Bay are currently showing margins of victory of fewer than 25 votes. Under the Election Act, if the official tabulation confirms a margin within this threshold, the Returning Officer for the district will be required to apply for a recount. Elections Ontario will await the completion of the official tabulation process before determining next steps.
