Bad #karma for Liberal Party by holding convention in Maple Leaf Gardens. Will lose for next 45 years #olpdrRuss Manock
The long wait for 2nd ballot results gave people time to make stuff up:
Maybe the Liberals need the teachers to help counting those ballots?! What's taking so long? #olpldrBrent Charette
After the protest:
I'd like to protest the amount of garbage left behind by protesters. #olpldrJason Graham
Liberals' inability to count 2000 ballots ample proof that we need teachers. #olpldrBrent Charette
And then after the results of the 2nd ballot:
Never have "strolls" been so dramatic. #olpldrDan Speerin
Headline writers must be breathing sighs of relief that 'FOR THE WYNNE' and 'PUPATELL-NO' are still on the table. #olpldr #onpoliRyan Flanagan
The results from #olpldr 1996 weren't announced until 4:25 a.m. Looks like we're doing well… #ONpoliAnthony Furey

Lots of people following on twitter and television
