B.C. election 2020: Prince George-Valemount results

Shirley Bond of the BC Liberals is projected to win yet again in Prince George-Valemount.

Bond held multiple cabinet portfolios during the last BC Liberal government, including justice, transportation and education.

The BC NDP nominated 21-year-old University of Northern B.C. student Laura Parent.

The city centre is friendlier territory for the NDP, while Prince George’s outskirts and southern suburbs trend heavily Liberal.
