Elections Canada says most of the 850,000 mail-in ballots from Monday's federal election should be counted by the end of the day.

That should decide the nail-biter race underway in Vancouver Granville, former justice minister Jody Wilson-Raybould's old riding, where just over 200 hundred votes separated the Liberal and New Democrat candidates on election night.

Mail-in ballots also have the potential to affect the outcome in Richmond Centre, where a Liberal hopeful is leading and could unseat the Conservative incumbent.

Elections Canada says counts have ended in three other close ridings, including Yukon, with Liberal candidate and former chief medical officer of health, Dr. Brendan Hanley, has officially been declared the winner.
