Global News projects Brandon Lunty will win the Leduc-Beaumont seat for the United Conservative Party.
Leduc-Beaumont is a provincial riding located in greater Edmonton. The UCP held this riding prior to the May 29 election, when Brad Rutherford collected 14,982 votes, winning 58.4 per cent of the vote in the 2019 Alberta provincial election.
Quick take:
The riding south of Edmonton is one in which there is no incumbent running. Rutherford, who helped the UCP unseat the NDP in the riding when he won its seat during the 2019 election, has decided not to run in 2023.
History:
The current Leduc-Beaumont riding was first created in 2010 as part of a number of electoral boundary changes that came into effect that year. In the three elections held since, the riding was held by the Progressive Conservatives, followed by the NDP and then the UCP.
