比预定选举结果公布时间延迟了7个小时之后，安省保守党宣布：道格-福特赢得安省保守党党领选举。
本次选举投票人数创下了历史记录，达到了64，053，超过了2002年的历史记录44，188人
Party officials said that voter turnout was higher than in any other leadership contest in its history, with 64,053 preferential ballots cast over the week-long voting period, though 71,450 total members were registered. The previous record was 44,188 ballots cast in 2002.
安省华人移民积极参政，投入了本次安省保守党选举的方方面面，大部分华人移民支持道格-福特，帮助道格-福特击败建制派支持者Elliott做出了巨大贡献。选举结果票数非常接近，据说只有100票的差距。华人移民中有人报告一家贡献了7票给福特，了不起。
