THE NDP’s Garry Begg defeated BC Conservative Honveer Singh Randhawa by 22 votes after the judicial recount in the Surrey-Guildford electoral district was completed on Friday. At the conclusion of the recount, voting results were as follows:
| Candidate | Affiliation | Total valid votes | % of total valid votes |
| Garry Begg | BC NDP | 8,947 | 46.93% |
| Kabir Qurban | Independent | 370 | 1.94% |
| Honveer Singh Randhawa | Conservative Party | 8,925 | 46.81% |
| Manjeet Singh Sahota | BC Green Party
|
824 | 4.32% |
Justice Kevin D. Loo of the Supreme Court of British Columbia declared Begg elected.
Election results in Surrey-Guildford were automatically subject to a judicial recount because the difference between the top two candidates was less than 1/500th of the total ballots considered.
Under the Election Act, there is a two-day appeal period before Justice Loo can issue a certificate of results to the District Electoral Officer for Surrey-Guildford. The appeal period will expire on Tuesday, November 12.
