QUOTE: "The following text is an edited excerpt from a yet-untitled forthcoming book on Saskatchewan politics.
The results are in, and despite the provincial NDP making significant gains, Saskatchewan will continue to be governed by the right-wing Saskatchewan Party for the next four years. At the time of this writing, Premier Scott Moe’s party is projected to win 32 seats—one more than the 31 required for a majority—and is leading in three ridings that are still too close to call. The NDP is projected to win 22 seats, and is leading in four close-call ridings. The Sask. Party dominated rural areas, while the NDP cleaned up in urban ones. . . . ."
