Six municipal recounts have concluded without changing any of the candidates who were declared elected on May 9.
Recounts were held over the past week in Campbellton, New Maryland, Rexton, in Ward 2 in Riverview, Rivière-Verte and in Ward 1 in Saint-André.
Each recount confirmed the results reported from the vote tabulation machines used during the election.
There were 29 contests in the May 9 elections where the margin of votes between a winning candidate and the runner-up was less than 25 votes.
Under the Municipal Elections Act, a candidate who participated in a recount with a municipal returning officer has the option to file for a judicial recount within 10 days following the conclusion of the initial recount.
