US EditionRecount underway in rural Newfoundland riding where Liberal had 12-vote lead
- A judicial recount began on May 12, 2025, in the Terra Nova-The Peninsulas riding, a rural area in central Newfoundland where Liberals led by 12 votes.
- Elections Canada ordered this recount plus three others after the April 28 federal election because each winning margin was below one one-thousandth of valid votes cast.
- The outcome of the recount in Newfoundland will determine whether Anthony Germain from the Liberal Party or Jonathan Rowe representing the Conservatives is declared the winner, while similarly tight contests took place in Windsor-Tecumseh and Terrebonne.
- Elections Canada said it could take “a day or two” to finalize the Newfoundland recount and the Liberals currently hold 170 seats, two seats short of a majority government.
- The recount outcomes may affect parliamentary dynamics by showing how small vote differences influence seat distribution and government formation.
