In a tightly contested election race, Scott Moe and the Saskatchewan Party have emerged victorious, securing their fifth-straight majority government in the province. Global News is projecting that the Saskatchewan Party will form a majority government in the 61-seat legislature, fending off a challenge from Carla Beck’s NDP. This win marks Moe’s second election at the helm of the party.
Moe managed to retain his seat in Rosthern-Shellbrook, receiving 63 percent of the vote. While this was a decrease from his previous win in 2020, where he garnered 79.5 percent of the votes in the riding, it was still enough to secure the victory. In his victory speech, Moe expressed gratitude to the people of Saskatchewan for once again placing their trust in him and the governing party.
The election night was a long one, with vote counting stretching into Tuesday morning. But Moe remained optimistic, joking that it was actually a good morning to be in Saskatchewan. With his wife Krista by his side, he thanked the residents of the province for their continued support.
As the official count continues, it is clear that the Saskatchewan Party will continue to lead the province for another term. This victory cements their position as the dominant political force in Saskatchewan, ensuring their policies and vision for the province will remain in place.
