Global News is projected BC Conservative candidate Elenore Sturko has been elected in Surrey-Cloverdale.
This was the number one riding to watch this provincial election.
This riding was represented by NDP MLA Mike Starchuk who first took office in 2020. Starchuk collected 12,992 votes, winning 52.1 per cent of the vote in the 2020 B.C. provincial election.
It was incumbent versus incumbent after Starchuk flipped this seat for the NDP in 2020 and Sturko ran in this riding for the Conservatives.
For many voters, their riding may have changed in this upcoming provincial election.
Following the 2020 provincial election, the Electoral Boundaries Commission was required to complete a redistribution of seats.
After the final report was released, an act was passed in 2023 to increase seats in the B.C. legislature from 87 to 93. This includes four new ridings in the Lower Mainland, one on Vancouver Island, and one in the Interior.
In addition, 72 ridings had their boundaries adjusted. Forty-one ridings had their names changed.
Voters will decide who will represent Surrey-Cloverdale during the upcoming B.C. provincial election on Oct. 19, 2024.
