Elections NWT has confirmed there will be two judicial recounts Wednesday for last week’s territorial election.
Both will take place at the Supreme Court of the Northwest Territories in Yellowknife.
The two Yellowknife ridings to be recounted are Frame Lake, where incumbent Kevin O’Reilly won over Dave Ramsay by 11 votes.
Since then Ramsay has said that he doesn’t trust the result.
The other recount is for Yellowknife North where Rylund Johnson won over incumbent Cory Vanthuyne by a mere five votes.
Both results are inside the two percent margin of victory which then triggers an automatic, mandatory recount.
No matter the result of the recounts, MLAs are scheduled to be sworn in at the Legislative Assembly on Friday morning.
