Amanda Freistadt, Chief Returning Officer for the Alberta NDP Leadership Race announced Sunday that 85,144 members will be eligible to vote for a new Alberta NDP leader.
“This leadership race is an historic moment for the Alberta NDP. Voters from all walks of life and all regions of the province joined the Alberta NDP because they are excited to support our party in forming the next government,” said Freistadt.
Eligible voters are required to have been members in good standing by the membership sales deadline of April 22. The leadership race was initiated in January when Rachel Notley announced she would step down when a new leader is selected, after a decade as the party’s leader. Shortly after, the party’s provincial council set the rules and timelines for the race.
An independent voting company will conduct the election on behalf of the party. The winner will be determined by a ranked choice ballot.
Ballots and voting information will be mailed to members via Canada Post at the end of May. Voting members will have the option to vote online, by telephone, or by returning their ballot through Canada Post to the voting company. Voting opens June 3 and all ballots must be received by June 22 at 12 PM. The party will announce the new leader at the Hyatt Regency Suites in Calgary on the afternoon of June 22.

I just filled out the number of residents as it is starred and then just kept hitting next until the end. Had a 15 minute timer and it took me 15 minutes. Could leave comments but by then out of time and patience. 🤮"
Imagine my surprise when a census worker showed up at my door yesterday because I hadn't done. She knew I had the long form and had it with her for us to complete and I told her when and where I filled out, even approximate time of day, and she asked for confirmation code so went to work trying to find. When you are rushed naturally can't find so said that I couldn't find. Found as soon as she got back to her car and showed her before she drove off. I can't hate this country enough as I know that because I only ...
