Ontarians vote in a snap election Thursday and we'll bring you all of the latest results as well as expert analysis.

Remember: Polls close at 9 p.m. ET, so if you're a Canadian citizen who calls Ontario home you have until then to cast a ballot. 

Here's how you can follow the election on TV, radio and online:

How to watch on TV

The countdown to results begins at 8 p.m. ET on CBC TV and CBC News Network and we'll start bringing you results as soon as polls close at 9 p.m.

You can also watch the special on CBC Gem, YouTube or on some smart TVs.

Dwight Drummond will host our special: Ontario Votes 2025. The show will feature analysis from our Senior Queen's Park Reporter Mike Crawley and CBC's Chief Political Correspondent Rosemary Barton, alongside other experts. David Common will get you results from across the province.   

We will have reporters at the campaign headquarters of every major party leader.

While it's impossible to predict, the last election was called within the first half hour, so you may want to tune in early.
