While Trudeau was once again in a dogfight, he has advanced to the final four, along with the other top seeds. The results of the quarter-finals are:
(1) Mackenzie King (513) 61.88%
(9) John Diefenbaker (316) 38.12%
(2) John A. Macdonald (606) 72.49%
(7) Brian Mulroney (230) 27.51%
(3) Pierre Trudeau (430) 50.83%
(11) Lester B. Pearson (416) 49.17%
(4) Wilfrid Laurier (617) 74.61%
(5) Jean Chretien (210) 25.39%
This will set up what promises to be two very interesting semi-finals with Trudeau vs. Macdonald and King vs Laurier. I’ll post the poll tomorrow.
