Ottawa West-Nepean voters are projected to re-elect Liberal MP Anita Vandenbeld.

The riding has swung back and forth between Liberals and Conservatives in recent years. Vandenbeld has been its Liberal MP since 2015, getting about 45 per cent of the vote in 2019 and 2021.

Vandenbeld previously worked internationally on democracy and getting women involved in politics. She also worked for the party.

There were trade-offs with three neighbouring ridings around the edges of this suburban Ottawa riding under the latest redistribution.

Six candidates ran this time. Conservative Ryan Telford came in second.
