Liberals' Kusmierczyk pushes for recount in 'razor-thin' loss to Conservatives (www.cbc.ca)

Fewer than 250 votes – that was Conservative candidate Kathy Borrelli's initial margin of victory over the Liberals' Irek Kusmierczyk, who has served as the MP for Windsor—Tecumseh—Lakeshore for more than five years.

Now, Kusmierczyk is pushing for a recount in the border city riding after Borrelli's lead dropped to just 77 votes once the federal election results were validated.

I'd be willing to bet there are more than 77 liberal voters who stayed home and sat on their ass. Would love to ask them now why they couldn't be bothered to vote.

I doubt the recount will change the result, but who knows. Better to be thorough than to leave it to any doubts.

Borrelli’s lead dropped to just 77 votes

That truly was crazy close. That lead was equal to .3% of the population of Amherstburg.
