It took 90 years, but the redrawn Windsor-Tecumseh-Lakeshore riding is now Conservative blue.
On her second try, Kathy Borrelli was elected as the riding's Member of Parliament, narrowly defeating two-term Liberal incumbent Irek Kusmierczyk.
The last time a Conservative represented the area in Ottawa, Raymond Ducharme Morand ended his term in 1935 in the riding of Essex East.
Speaking to supporters early Tuesday morning at John Max's in east Windsor, Borrelli thanked her supporters and pledged to work on behalf of everyone in the riding.
"Tonight, we've not just won an election, we've brought it home for Canadians, renewing the promise of our great nation," said Borrelli. "I promise to work hard every day, both in Ottawa, and here at home."
Borrelli said her top priority is lowering the cost of living for those in the area.
"We know that on everyone's mind is affordability," said Borrelli. "We need to bring down the crisis of homes, we need to get rid of the carbon tax, we need fewer taxes. Food needs to be more affordable."
The race for the riding went back and forth over the course of the evening, with Borrelli often trading the lead with Kusmierczyk. Shortly after midnight, late vote totals increased the lead for Borrelli.
