Results From Federal Election Recount in Rural Newfoundland Riding Expected Friday
- The federal election recount in the Terra Nova-The Peninsulas riding of Newfoundland finalized on Friday, May 23, 2025, with Conservative candidate Jonathan Rowe narrowly surpassing his Liberal opponent Anthony Germain by a margin of 12 votes.
- The recount occurred because Germain initially led by 12 votes after the April 28 election, triggering an automatic judicial recount under Elections Canada rules.
- The process involved recounting over 41,000 votes from 279 ballot boxes in a secure location in Marystown, where public buildings closed and the water supply was temporarily shut for unrelated municipal work.
- Elections Canada spokesperson Matthew McKenna said Justice Garrett Handrigan expected to complete the vote count by Friday, with the recount stretching to nine days instead of the expected three.
- Rowe’s win adds a third seat to the Conservative count in Newfoundland and Labrador, while the Liberals maintain four seats and remain three short of securing a nationwide majority government.
