Shuswap MLA Says 'Better Days Are Ahead' Following Landslide Conservative Win
Williams won a second term as voters gave him 54.9% of the vote, while the BC NDP finished more than 26 points behind.
- On Saturday, October 24, Conservative incumbent David Williams secured re-election in Salmon Arm-Shuswap with 15,421 votes, capturing 54.9 per cent of the vote and defeating BC NDP candidate Gloria Morgan.
- Despite recent internal upheaval within the Conservative Party, including leader Kerry-Lynne Findlay's resignation after 14 MLAs left to form the CentreBC Party, Williams remained confident about achieving a common goal to change the provincial government.
- During the campaign, Williams emphasized his two years of experience as MLA, while competitors like Green Party candidate Jed Wiebe and CentreBC's Denise Reimer presented alternative platforms to voters.
- The Conservative Party secured 63 of British Columbia's 93 ridings, prompting supporters at the Salmon Arm Legion to celebrate what they termed a monumental shift in the province's political atmosphere.
- Williams pledged to work for all constituents, aiming to provide a rural perspective under Premier-elect Lorne Doerkson as the focus turns to challenges facing the Shuswap community.
