staff report
November 17, 2020 4:03pm

A judicial recount has declared Jordan Sturdy as the winner of the West Vancouver-Sea to Sky electoral district.

He won by a narrow margin of 60 votes.

At the conclusion of the recount, voting results were as follows: With 9,249 votes cast for Jordan Sturdy, he took 37.54% of the total votes.

Green Party candidate Jeremy Valeriote polled 9,189 votes, which is 37.30% of the total votes cast.

BC NDP candidate, Keith Murdoch, won 6,197 votes, which is 25.16 % of the total vote share.

Justice David A. Crerar of the Supreme Court of British Columbia has now declared Jordan Sturdy elected.

The final count was automatically subject to a judicial recount because the difference between the top two candidates was less than 1/500 of the total ballots considered.

In the earlier count, Sturdy was winning by 41 votes out of 24,769 total votes.

Under the Election Act, there is a two-day appeal period before the judge can issue a certificate of results to the District Electoral Officer for West Vancouver-Sea to Sky.

The appeal period will expire on November 19.
