never did i want to know this much about the recount pr

I wish I had more of an update, y’all, but this is turning out to be a fiendishly tricky tale to untangle. I wasn’t able to speak to Ray Leitch, who is now referring media inquiries to the national office in Ottawa — specifically, to Ryan Sparrow, who would only state that the party “is disappointed that not all the ballots were counted during the recount” and will “explore various options in the next few days” to make sure that happens. “Regardless of the results, all we would like to see is that every vote in Vancouver South has been counted.” But let’s look on the bright side for a moment – he replied to my email! Promptly, even!
