Provincial by-election in Winnipeg – 730 CKDM

The provincial by-election will be held on June 18 at the Tuxedo in Winnipeg.

The seat will be vacated by former premier and PC leader Heather Stefanson, who announced on May 6 that she will vacate the seat.

Stefanson won the seat by nearly 300 votes in last October's election, but later that evening the Tories announced plans to step down as party leader after Vab Kinev lost the legislature to the NDP.

There are currently 34 New Democrats, 21 Progressive Conservatives and one Liberal in the Manitoba legislature, with one vacancy.
