Original Toronto Star caption: The winner over veteran Liberal Ian Wahn, Conservative Ron Atkey and his wife, Brenda, thank his workers for his victory in St. Paul's. Thirty-year-old Atkey called his election a victory for the senior citizens. The voters of St. Paul's average the oldest of those in any riding in the country. There was, however, a majority of under-30s celebrating with Atkey at the Fanny Hill tavern, Bloor St.
