Conservative Scott Reid was projected to retain his seat in Lanark-Frontenac on Monday night, winning the seat he’s held for 25 years.

With 165 of 261 polls reporting, Reid was more than 3,000 votes ahead of Liberal candidate Michelle Foxton.

Previously known as Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston, the riding includes the towns of Carleton Place, Perth and Smiths Falls.

Along with Cheryl Gallant representing Algonquin-Renfrew-Pembroke, Reid is the longest-serving Conservative Member of Parliament. This is Reid’s ninth consecutive federal election win. He first took victory in 2000 from Liberal incumbent Ian Murray.

After the results were called in his favour, Reid said he looks forward to continuing to represent the area he’s held for 25 years.

Other candidates in the Lanark-Frontenac riding include NDP Danielle Rae and the Green Party’s Jesse Pauley.
