Can we include a bit about the upcoming Liberal convention? Probably candidates include Brian Tobin, Frank McKenna, Belinda Stronach, Michael Ignatieff, John Manley.

[edit] 2003 Convention

Perhaps the article should mention that at the last convention most delegates had no choice on the first ballot. Elected delegates, the vast majority, were elected as either a Martin delegate or a Copps delegate (although I believe there were some independent delegates). If one was a Martin delegate, one was handed a pre-marked Martin ballot for the first round. I believe that candidates were not bound after the first round but with only two major candidates (and Martin's huge vitory), there was no second round. --JGGardiner 22:05, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
