WINNIPEG—A judge has rejected a court challenge of the vote that made Heather Stefanson leader of Manitoba’s Progressive Conservatives and the province’s premier.
Shelly Glover, who came up just short with 49 percent of the ballots on Oct. 30, alleged there were voting problems and wanted the court to toss out the results.
