Incumbent Michael Mantha is running to reclaim his seat in Algoma-Manitoulin, contrary to what you might have heard in an automated phone message, says his campaign office.

Village Media newsrooms received an urgent news release from Mantha at about 3:15 on the afternoon of election day saying the campaign office got reports of an automated phone call campaign saying Mantha was not running and that votes for him would be invalid.

Mantha's office has reported this to Elections Ontario and he wants people to know that he is running to be re-elected and is urging all voters to get to the polls and cast their votes today.
