A seat in the B.C. election that was projected to be the first Green win on the Lower Mainland has flipped to the Liberal incumbent by a slim margin.
Elections B.C. says the final mail-in ballot count put Liberal Jordan Sturdy ahead of Green Jeremy Valeriote by only 41 votes.
The margin is so tight that Elections B.C. says it triggers an automatic judicial recount.
Elections B.C. has said it's aiming to wrap up the count of mail-in and absentee ballots today that it began on Friday, 13 days after the October 24th provincial election.
