Conservative Kathy Borrelli has won the Ontario riding of Windsor—Tecumseh—Lakeshore after a judicial recount confirmed her victory today by just four votes.
The Liberals called for a judicial recount, after the initial validated results following the election on April 28 saw incumbent Liberal Irek Kusmierczyk lose by 77 votes.

The recount began on Tuesday and the final results were announced this morning.
This result does not change the House of Commons seat count, leaving the Liberals with 170 seats, just two shy of the number needed for a majority government.
