US EditionElections Canada says Terrebonne vote is final, despite ‘error’ with special ballot
- Elections Canada confirmed that the Liberal candidate won the federal riding of Terrebonne by one vote after a judicial recount in May 2025.
- The close result followed conflicting counts where preliminary results showed a Liberal lead, validation gave the seat to the Bloc Québécois, and a recount restored it to the Liberals.
- A single special mail-in ballot was returned to a voter after an error was found in the final segment of the postal code on the return envelope, representing the only known instance of a marked ballot being sent back due to an incorrect address in this election.
- Final tallies showed Tatiana Auguste with 23,352 votes and Nathalie Sinclair-Desgagn with 23,351, while Elections Canada said the recount result is final and no appeals or recounts have been formally requested yet.
- The result leaves the Liberals two seats short of a majority, raises questions about possible further legal challenges or a byelection, but no mechanism exists to count late votes even if caused by election errors.
