Notley has held the seat since 2008.

Notley’s biggest win came in 2015, when she won 82.4 per cent of the votes in her riding, and became the premier of Alberta.

Morinville-St. Albert Winner: Dale Nally (UCP)

UCP candidate Dale Nally claimed 50 per cent of votes last time around, but is expected to face a tougher battle this year.

Sherwood Park Winner: Kyle Kasawski (NDP)

The UCP’s Jorden Walker will not be keeping his seat in Sherwood Park as he was defeated by Kyle Kasawski.

In 2015, the NDP won the riding, picking up 52 per cent of votes.

In 2019, the UCP was able to flip the riding, picking up 45.4 per cent of the votes.

With Kasawski’s win, the riding flips once again.

St. Albert Winner: Marie Renaud (NDP)

NDP candidate Marie Renaud will once again take the seat, this time defeating Cameron Jefferies of the Alberta Green Party and Angela Wood of the UCP.

In the 2019 election, Renaud managed to remain MLA.

Gaining 160 votes from the 2015 election, Renaud saw a closer battle in 2019, as the voter percentage dropped from nearly 54 per cent to 46 per cent.
