Recounts for two UCP ridings that flipped to the Alberta NDP in last month’s election have solidified the New Democrats’ victory in two close ridings, though less than 100 votes still decided both ridings. The election saw 1,777,321 votes cast, for a turnout of 59.5%. Comparatively, over 1.9 million electors voted in the 2019 election, resulting in a final voter turnout of 67.5%.
