VANCOUVER – Elections BC says votes will be recounted in two ridings where the provincial NDP and Conservative candidates are separated by fewer than 100 votes.

The agency says recounts will take place in the key ridings of Juan de Fuca-Malahat and Surrey City Centre as part of the final count between Oct. 26 and 28, meaning the result of B.C.’s election won’t be official for another week.

More coming.
