Elections Canada has set a date to recount ballots from the federal election in the riding of Windsor-Tecumseh-Lakeshore.

Ontario Superior Court Justice Ross MacFarlane ordered a judicial recount on Friday after Liberal candidate Irek Kusmierczyk requested it.

Kusmierczyk lost his seat by 77 votes to Conservative Kathy Borrelli in the April 28 federal election.

There is a hearing Monday morning to finalize details, but Elections Canada said the recount will start on Tuesday, May 20 and could take three days.

Officials will carry out the recount at the Green Valley Plaza in Tecumseh.

Recounts are automatic if the result is within one one-thousandth of the total votes cast. The result in Windsor-Tecumseh-Lakeshore was just above the threshold.
