Buoyed by the so-called "ABC Campaign", spearheaded by popular Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Danny Williams, the Liberals won six seats and the NDP one.

The St. John's East seat changed from the Tories to NDP, as Norman Doyle retired.

The change in Avalon was a crushing blow as the incumbent Fabian Manning was soundly defeated by the Liberals' Scott Andrews.

In the fourth riding, Egmont, incumbent Liberal Joe McGuire retired, and the seat went to the Tories.

Elizabeth May of the Green Party was defeated in the riding of Central Nova, which was a battle between her and incumbent cabinet minister Peter MacKay.

Three ridings previously held by the Liberals switched to the Tories; Fredericton, Miramichi, and Saint John.

A recent recount saw the Liberals take the riding of Brossard—La Prairie from the BQ, slightly strengthening their position.
