A Quebec Liberal Party candidate who lost her seat following a judicial recount is accusing a judge of unfairly rejecting ballots. Afine Walalika wrote on social media that several ballots deemed valid on election night were rejected during the recount because one or more pencil marks were either very faint or appeared on the outside of the designated circle, even if the circle contained a check mark. The Liberal candidate won by 10 votes on election night, but that decision was overturned following a recount by the PQ. The Liberal Party said it was challenging the judges invalidation. Quebec Premier Paul Saint-Pierre Plamondon scheduled to meet with representatives of the Assembly of First Nations of Quebec and Labrador tomorrow.
