The Liberal candidate in Lewisporte-Twillingate confirms he’s considering whether or not to request a judicial recount in the district.
Incumbent Derek Bennett lost the district to PC candidate Mark Butt by a margin of just 18 votes.
The former Speaker of the House says he is considering his options and will make his final decision public in the coming days.
Bennett has until Monday of next week to make up his mind. An automatic recount is triggered with a margin of ten votes or less, otherwise a candidate has to request a judicial recount.
