Alberta NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi emerged victorious in one of three byelections in the province on June 23, securing a landslide win in Edmonton-Strathcona after a year of sitting on the sidelines.
Nenshi’s party colleague Gurtej Singh Brar won the Edmonton-Ellerslie race, while political newcomer Tara Sawyer successfully held onto the rural Olds-Didsbury-Three Hills riding for the UCPs in a race where the separatist Republican Party of Alberta took third place.
