Richard Durante : ウィキペディア英語版 | Richard Durante
Richard John Joseph Durante (born 17 August 1930 at New Westminster, British Columbia) was a Liberal Party member of the Canadian House of Commons. He was a supervising principal by career. In the 1968 general election, Tom Barnett was initially declared the winner of the Comox—Alberni riding over Durante by a three-vote margin. But the Liberals demanded a recount whose result gave Durante a nine-vote lead, therefore giving Durante the seat in Parliament. However, Barnett and his party's riding association filed a court challenge that concluded on 3 February 1969 when two British Columbia Supreme Court court judges ruled that twelve Canadian Forces members had voted despite being ineligible. The result was therefore invalidated. Durante was allowed to remain a member of the House of Commons for one additional week, to allow time for a possible appeal.〔''Winnipeg Free Press'', 4 February 1969, p. 1.〕 The Liberals ultimately decided not to challenge the ruling, and Durante's seat was declared vacant. This led to a by-election on 8 April 1969 which Barnett won against Durante, therefore cutting short the Liberal candidate's career in federal politics.
