Can a vote be invalidated as a result of a series of irregularities?
Canada (Federal), Canada
The following excerpt is from Pahtayken v. Oakes, 2009 FC 134 (CanLII):
I agree with the Applicants that, in order for a vote to be invalidated, the irregularities would have to be more significant that the ones that in fact occurred in this case. In Keefe v. Pukanich (2007), [2008] 4 W.W.R. 112, 2007 NWTSC 90, for example, Justice Vertes would not have set aside an election as a result of numerous irregularities if one of them had not amounted to an abdication of the returning officer’s duty, taking the election out of compliance with the statutory requirements.
