Ric Bresee secures the party's 5th straight win here
The PCs have their fifth straight win in Hastings-Lennox and Addington, as CBC projects Ric Bresee will return as MPP.
The riding runs from Lake Ontario north through Napanee, Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory, north Belleville, Marmora and Denbigh to connect with Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke.
It was first contested in 2018.
Bresee won his first election here in 2022 with nearly 50 per cent of the vote. He took up the PC banner from Daryl Kramp.
Before provincial politics, Bresee worked for St. Lawrence College and served municipally in Loyalist Township, rising up the ranks to mayor.
The area's last non-PC win was by the Liberals in 2007.
Six candidates ran for the seat.
