"We need to know what happened in this election to ensure that it does not go wrong in the next election," Coffin said Monday. NDP provincial president Kyle Rees clarified Monday afternoon the application will target the St. John's East-Quidi Vidi district. NDP Leader Alison Coffin failed to reclaim her seat in the St. John's East-Quidi Vidi district, losing by 53 votes.
