Outgoing Senator Sarah Ferguson called for a recount of all the Senatorial votes from this month's General Election after losing office by just a few hundred votes.
Recount results: Senator Ferguson failed to secure a seat
Outgoing Senator Sarah Ferguson has failed to secure a seat in Jersey's new government despite a recount.
There were a few marginal changes after the recount, but not enough for her to beat Senator Philip Ozouf to the 8th senatorial seat.
Originally in the election, Sarah Ferguson had 9,800 votes. In the recount, she has 9,809.
Philip Ozouf had 10,062. After the recount, he has 10,080 - a difference of 12 votes, increasing the gap between himself and Ferguson and securing his position as Senator for another term in the states.
