Newfoundland riding flips to Conservatives after judicial recount

  • Following a judicial recount concluded on May 23, 2025, the Terra Nova—The Peninsulas electoral district in Newfoundland and Labrador was won by the Conservative Party.
  • The recount started on May 12 due to the initial April 28 election showing Liberal Anthony Germain ahead by only 12 votes, triggering the automatic process.
  • The near two-week recount reviewed over 1,000 ballots, included rejected ballots, and required unanimous agreement to reclassify votes under Justice Garrett Handrigan’s supervision.
  • Jonathan Rowe, the Conservative candidate, won by 12 votes with 19,605 votes to Germain’s 19,593, securing the party’s third seat in Newfoundland and Labrador.
  • Rowe’s victory reduces the Liberals to 169 seats, three short of majority, and reflects increasing Conservative support in the province, marking Rowe’s first federal political role.
