yukon party esau schafer: Live & Latest News Updates : Vimarsana.com
The drama over the territorial election results for the Vuntut Gwitchin riding is over. For the moment, anyway.
Following a judicial review late Monday afternoon at the Whitehorse courthouse which led to a drawing of lots to break the 78-78 tie in ballots, Annie Blake of the NDP emerged as the winner and MLA-designate.
She defeated Pauline Frost, the Liberal minister of Health and Social Services and Environment.
The NDP’s gain casts a new wrinkle for the incoming government, likely to be led by Premier Sandy Silver’s Liberals.
The final results from the April 12 election leave the Liberals with eight seats, the Yukon Party with eight seats and the NDP with three seats.

Canada reported its first case of vaccine-induced blood clots linked to Oxford-AstraZeneca yesterday, and the United States put the brakes on the Johnson & Johnson vaccine following six reports of blood clots there.
The Johnson vaccine held immense promise because its single-dose regimen and relatively simple storage requirements would make it easier to use, especially in less affluent countries.
The clots, which happened six to 13 days after vaccination in veins that drain blood from the brain, occurred together with low platelets -- the fragments in blood that normally form clots.
