It was held on June 5, 1890, to elect the 91 members of the 7th Legislative Assembly of Ontario ("MLAs"). The Assembly had been increased from 90 members after the passage of an Act in 1889 creating Nipissing as a riding.An Act to give Representation in the Legislative Assembly to the District of Nipissing S.O. 1889 2 https://archive.org/details/statutesofprovin1889onta/page/8/mode/2up The election was a victory for the Ontario Liberal Party, led by Oliver Mowat.Dunning Wm. A. 1890 Record of Political Events http://www.jstor.org/stable/2139551 Political Science Quarterly 5 4 741 10.2307/2139551 2139551 subscription The party won a sixth consecutive term in government, despite losing a small number of seats in the Legislature. The Ontario Conservative Party, led by William Ralph Meredith won two additional seats. This election was held partially using the Limited voting system where each Toronto voter had two votes for the three MPPs in the district. This produced mixed representation in that district and thus a degree of minority representation.1921 Special House of Commons Committee on pro-rep. report, p. 12 A key issue in the election was the segregation of schools for Catholic and Protestant students, with the Liberal Party supporting the segregation and the Conservatives opposing it. An 1887 Act had renamed the riding of Cornwall and Stormont as Stormont.An Act to give early effect to certain amendments of the Law recommended by the Statute Commissioners S.O. 1887 8 https://archive.org/details/statutesofprovin1887onta/page/30/mode/2up, Schedule Results Elections to the 7th Parliament of Ontario (1890) https://results.elections.on.ca/en/data-explorer?fromYear=1867&toYear=2019&electionType=GE&electionId=98 1890 general election results Elections Ontario November 22, 2023 |- ! colspan=2 rowspan=2 | Political party ! rowspan=2 | Party leader ! colspan=5 | MPPs ! colspan=3 | Votes |- !
