2023 Alberta Election Results

So, once again let me express my thanks to the 13,071 constituents who came out to vote for me and my party. I also recognize the 4,531 people of the riding who exercised their right to a democratic vote and chose alternative candidates.

We must all work to ensure that our democratic process, an important element in sustaining our peaceful and ordered society, is always able to function safely and fairly.

I very much look forward to serving the riding to the best of my ability over the next four years.
