When it comes to the Newfoundland and Labrador election, the dust may not be settled just yet

Lyle Skinner said there are several ways for Saturday's results in the provincial election to land before a judge, and it could begin with a recount in the St. John's district where NDP Leader Alison Coffin lost by 53 votes.

Skinner said even if Coffin doesn't believe a recount will overturn her narrow loss in the St. John's East-Quidi Vidi district, the recount would provide an opportunity to look at whether votes in that district were inappropriately tossed aside as the NDP feared. Skinner said anyone who feels like their right to vote was denied has the option of going to court, especially if they feel they're part of a group of disenfranchised voters whose ballots may have changed the outcome in their district. He also said civil liberties organizations could take an interest and help them out with their fight.
