Condon will contest new area riding Liberal MP Larry Condon announced Wednesday that he will seek the party’s nomination in the new riding of Lambton-Middlesex. Condon, 41, currently represents the riding of Middlesex-London- Lambton, which under federal elec­ toral redistribution has been split into two ridings. Condon will seek nomina­ tion in the new riding carved out of the western portion of his current constituency, which will include all of Middlesex County west of Komoka, between the Elgin County line and Lake Huron, and all of Lambton County except the city of Sarnia and the townships of Sarnia and Moore. The new riding, which in­ cludes such centres as Strathroy, Petrolia. Forest and Watford, is predominantly rural and contains an estimated 46,000 to 48,000 eligible voters. Condon, whose name was mentioned last year as a possible candidate for nomination in the new riding of London-Middlesex, which is made up largely of the east end of his current riding, said he decided to run in Lambton-Middlesex because Strathroy has been his home area for the past 16 years. ^.IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIL I GRAND BEND!
