Alberta by-Elections Announced in 3 Districts, Including Where NDP Leader Will Run

  • Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announced that elections to fill three vacant seats will be held on June 23, 2025, in the districts of Edmonton-Strathcona, Edmonton-Ellerslie, and Olds-Didsbury-Three Hills.
  • The byelections follow resignations by NDP former premier Rachel Notley and MLAs Nathan Cooper and Rod Loyola, who vacated their seats for other roles or election bids.
  • NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi, acclaimed in January 2025 as Edmonton-Strathcona candidate, will compete against UCP's Darby Crouch, while other ridings feature candidates from UCP, NDP, and Alberta Republican Party.
  • Nenshi encouraged voters to make a positive decision for the province in the upcoming June 23 election, while Premier Smith highlighted that UCP candidates are committed to protecting Alberta from the NDP’s proposals for increased taxes and federal-style interference.
  • The byelections, aimed at filling seats in Alberta's Legislative Assembly, will have candidate nominations closing in early June, with the final results set to be officially declared on July 3.
