OTTAWA — More than half of Conservative party members have returned their leadership ballots with one week left before the deadline on Sept. 6.
The party says just over 350,000 ballots have been received from the 678,000 people who are eligible to vote in the contest.
Leadership candidates and their teams have spent the last few weeks with their heads down, working to ensure their supporters cast a vote.
Front-runner Pierre Poilievre, who has been hosting large rallies across the country throughout the campaign, held his final meet-and-greet yesterday in Vancouver.
