Liberals projected to win Sydney-Glace Bay, Cape Breton-Canso-Antigonish

In a recent projection by CBC News, it has been announced that the Liberals have secured victory in both Cape Breton ridings. Incumbents Mike Kelloway and Jaime Battiste have emerged victorious in their respective districts.

Mike Kelloway, a seasoned politician, has successfully clinched the seat in Sydney-Glace Bay. This marks Kelloway’s third consecutive win in a federal election, having previously represented Cape Breton-Canso in 2019 and 2021. On the other hand, Jaime Battiste, a proud member of Eskasoni First Nation, has retained his position in Cape Breton-Canso-Antigonish. Battiste had previously served as the MP for Sydney-Victoria in 2019 and 2021.

It is worth noting that the electoral boundaries in Cape Breton were redrawn prior to this election, adding an interesting dynamic to the political landscape. The successful re-election of both Kelloway and Battiste underscores the trust and confidence that the constituents have placed in them.

This development in Cape Breton comes as part of the larger federal election scenario unfolding across the country. The projection of Liberals winning in both ridings signals a continuation of their leadership and policies in the region.

As we await further updates and results from the ongoing election, the victories of Kelloway and Battiste stand out as significant milestones in the political journey of Cape Breton. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
