Scope and content
Following the 1996 provincial election, a judicial recount was required in the Okanagan-Boundary electoral district, as the margin of victory between the first candidate (Liberal candidate Bill Barisoff) and the second candidate (NDP candidate Bill Barlee) was only 33 votes, less than 1/500 of the total ballots considered and therefore automatically recounted under the 1995 Election Act. Though Barisoff ultimately remained the duly elected candidate for Okanagan-Boundary, the recount, which concluded on June 21, 1996, narrowed the difference to 27 votes. The decision was not appealed.
This file includes legal correspondence and copies of court documents relating to the judicial recount, and related materials.
