Conservatives hang on to federal Oxford riding with Khanna edging Hilderley

Conservatives hang on to federal Oxford riding with Khanna edging Hilderley

Global News
Tuesday, June 20, 2023 5:28 AM GMT

With 220 of 267 polls accounted for at 1 a.m., Khanna garnered 42.4 per cent of the vote, with second place Liberal Party candidate David Hilderley receiving 36.7 per cent.

After a closely contested race that divided a rural southwestern Ontario riding, Conservative Party candidate Arpan Khanna has been declared the unofficial winner.

According to Elections Canada, with 220 of 267 polls accounted for at 1 a.m., Khanna garnered 42.4 per cent of the vote, with second place Liberal Party candidate David Hilderley receiving 36.7 per cent.

Speaking at the Woodstock Agriculture Hall after midnight, Khanna thanked his campaign staff, supporters and family to the cheering applause of the crowd.

Speaking for roughly five minutes to the excited crowd, Khanna said he could not wait to get to work as the MP for Oxford in Ottawa.

“For that single parent that has to choose between milk and cereal, for that farmer who is putting food on tables but is having trouble with his own table… we hear you and I’ll fight for you every single day,” said Khanna.

The byelection in Oxford was one of four held across Canada Monday, with the one in Quebec and the other two in Manitoba.

While the Conservative Party was able to hang on to a seat it has held since 2004, it was not without controversy in the riding that includes the communities of Woodstock and Ingersoll.

Oxford’s outgoing MP – Dave MacKenzie, who announced he was stepping down from the seat in December – called the race “the nastiest campaign that we’ve ever seen in our riding.”
