Not all of the polls have been calculated, but the BC Conservatives seem to have won the Langley-Abbotsford riding.<\/p>\n

Conservative's Harman Bhangu took the riding with preliminary numbers. He has 14,042 votes to his nearest competitor, NDP hopeful (and former MP) John Aldag, who has 8,436 votes with all 22 boxes counted. <\/p>\n

Bhangu of the Conservatives has previous experience running for his party in the Surrey South byelection in 2022. An aggregate hauler by trade, he also coaches minor league football. During the campaign, the NDP seized on a leaked opposition research report that pointed to social media posts by Bhangu endorsing conspiracy theories.<\/p>\n

"The people of Langley-Abbotsford have rejected the NDP and their damaging policies. I'm ready to represent the entire community, and look forward to the work ahead," Bhangu said in an email to Black Press Media. <\/p>\n
