The riding is considered to be a safe one for the Liberals (both provincially and federally). The riding has been slowly trending Conservative since the early 1990s, however, not even the star power of Allan Cutler was able to win it for the tories. The riding has stayed in Liberal hands despite majority Conservative governments (federally in 1988 and provincially in 1995 and 1999). The riding hasn't had a tory MP or MPP since the late 1980's. When the Conservatives won a minority government in the 2006 federal election, and with a star candidate, the tories barely made any inroads in Ottawa South despite the Liberals only hanging on to two seats in Ottawa. For the NDP, this riding is not considered winable. The NDP did not fare well with a star candidate in Monia Mazigh in the 2004 federal election nor in the 1990 provincial election when the New Democrats won a majority government. However, the NDP has hung on to its 13% won in 2004 with Mazigh with another 13% in 2006 with a less notable candidate. Ottawa South is an inner-suburban middle class riding with the highest Arab population in Ontario.

1997

Before the 1997 election, the riding changed its boundaries slightly. The old 1987 version encompassed 95% of the new 1996 version. The remaining 5% came from nearby Carleton-Gloucester.

2004

The riding's boundaries had very little change. 99.7% of the riding remained intact, taking 0.3% from Ottawa-Vanier. John Manley retired prior to the 2004 election. He was among a number of high profile Liberals to retire, who were known to be Chretien loyalists. David McGuinty, brother of Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty, a lawyer won the Liberal nomination. He was known to be a friend of Prime Minister Paul Martin. McGuinty faced a steep challenge from Alan Riddell, another lawyer, and Monia Mazigh, the NDP candidate. Riddell, the Conservative candidate had suffered bad press, when it was discovered he had been driving with a suspended liscense. Mazigh, who lived in Nepean was another high profile candidate, being the wife of Maher Arar, who was wrongly convicted of terrorism. McGuinty suffered too, as his brother's government was unpopular at the time, but in the end was victorious.

2006

David McGuinty was re-elected after two years as a Liberal backbencher. The race was expected to be a lot closer then it turned out to be, as McGuinty faced a tough challenge from Conservative Allan Cutler. Cutler was the man who blew the whistle on the Liberal Sponsorship Scandal which saw millions of dollars of public funds transfered to Liberal friendly firms in Quebec during the Chrétien era. Nevertheless, Cutler was soudly defeated. Cutler, himself was painted as a hypocrite as he would not address the issue of his nomination. Accusations stated that 2004 candidate Alan Riddell was given $50,000 not to stand for nomination in the race. Riddell was also pushed aside in an earlier nomination race that saw former MP Barry Turner acclaimed, but would later drop out forcing a new race. Running for the NDP was the Lebanese-born economist Henri Sader who faced a difficult challenge holding on to the votes that Monia Mazigh won in the previous election. Running again for Greens again was John David Ford who failed to hold on to his votes, and running for the Progressive Canadian Party again was Brad Thomson who lost votes as well. Thomson had all but dropped out however, endorsing McGuinty. The Marijuana Party planned on running Tim Meehan, but he did not gain ballot access. David J.
