UPDATE: A Judge has dismissed Shelly Glover's application to throw out the result of October's Progressive Conservative Leadership vote, which saw Heather Stephanson win and replace Brain Pallister as Premier.
---------
A judge is expected to rule today in a fight over the leadership of Manitoba's governing Progressive Conservatives.
Shelly Glover, who finished a close second in the party's October 30th leadership race, alleges there were voting irregularities and wants the result thrown out.
Heather Stefanson won with 51 percent of ballots cast and was sworn in as premier three days later to replace Brian Pallister, who had retired.
Glover's lawyers have pointed to a voter spreadsheet handed out by the party, which showed fewer total ballots than the official results.
The party says while the spreadsheet was flawed, it had no bearing on the number of votes received and counted.
All parties in the case are expected in court at 1 pm to hear the judge’s decision.
