In March 2006, Elliott ran successfully as the Progressive Conservative candidate in the provincial riding of Whitby—Ajax in a by-election, replacing her husband who was elected to the federal Parliament. She was re-elected in 2007 in the redistributed riding of Whitby—Oshawa. She was re-elected in 2011 and 2014.

2009

Elliott became the party's Deputy Leader from 2009 until her resignation in 2015.

2014

On June 25, 2014, Elliott announced she would once again be seeking the leadership of the party for a second time. She had the support of at least nineteen of the twenty-eight caucus members but lost to Brown on May 9, 2015, in a two-person race with 38% of the vote. She resigned her seat in the legislature on August 28, 2015, one week before Brown's election to the provincial parliament.

2015

On December 10, 2015, she was appointed by Minister of Health and Long-Term Care Eric Hoskins as Ontario's first Patient Ombudsman effective as of July 1, 2016. The duties of the non-partisan position included acting on behalf of patients who have not had their issues resolved through normal complaint resolution processes. She said, "Ensuring that patients in Ontario's health-care system will now have a strengthened voice is a responsibility I am looking forward to taking on." On February 1, 2018, Elliott resigned as Patient Ombudsman to enter the Ontario PC Party leadership election.

2018

Elliott officially announced she was running for leadership on February 1, 2018, via Twitter, to replace Patrick Brown who had resigned as leader after sexual misconduct allegations were made against him. Elliott's campaign slogan was "Ready. Now." and her leadership campaign has focused on her experience compared to the other candidates. Elliott stated she supported the "People's Guarantee" (the existing platform adopted by the PC Party in November 2017) with the exception of a carbon tax, which she opposed. Elliott had the most support from the Ontario PC caucus of any leadership candidate in the race. On March 10, Elliott was eliminated on the third and final ballot of the leadership election, which was won by Doug Ford. Elliott had the most votes and had won the most ridings but did not have the most points and therefore came in second. Elliott initially refused to concede to Ford, citing “serious irregularities” in the race and vowed to “investigate the extent of this discrepancy”. However she conceded to Ford the next day and announced her support for him as party leader.
