Elections Canada says it is looking into how an incorrect postal code resulted in a mail-in ballot not being counted in the Quebec riding of Terrebonne, where the Liberals won by a single vote following a recount.

“We can confirm that there appears to be an error with the return address printed on this elector’s return envelope. Specifically, part of the postal code was wrong,” Elections Canada told The Epoch Times in a statement, adding the agency is still investigating the matter.
