The Manitoba legislative assembly will be slightly more orange-tinged after the results of a byelection in west Winnipeg. The affluent Tuxedo riding — a Tory stronghold for its entire four decades of existence — flipped to the NDP for the first time ever in Tuesday’s byelection. According to unofficial results from Elections Manitoba — which will be verified by the returning officer Friday — NDP candidate Carla Compton edged out Progressive Conservative Lawrence Pinsky by just over 600 votes.
