CP NewsAlert: Election Canada pauses vote counting with majority still in question

By Canadian Press on April 29, 2025.

OTTAWA — Elections Canada says it has decided to pause counting of special ballots until later Tuesday morning.

A handful of ridings remain too close to call and the move means Canadians won’t know until later in the day whether Mark Carney’s Liberals have won a minority or majority mandate.

Special ballots are cast by mail or at Elections Canada offices by voters who are away from their ridings during the election.
