As Elections NL begins counting ballots on Monday, in the province s extended election, one St. John s woman is urging voters to double-check their mail-in ballots before returning them.
When the election was called, Kayleigh Kennedy planned to vote in person, since she lives near a polling station in her Waterford Valley district. We had zero cases [of COVID-19] for so long that I was comfortable just going to vote in-person, Kennedy said.
