Elections Alberta has released the official results for the 2023 Provincial General Election.

According to Elections Alberta, this election saw 1,777,321 votes cast, for a turnout of 59.5 percent. Of that, a record-breaking 758,640 electors chose to vote during advance voting days, with 21.9 percent of people using the ‘Vote Anywhere’ service.

In the 10 days since Election Day, provincial officials say all Returning Officers completed the official count process.

All Election Day, mobile voting, and Special Ballots were recounted in the presence of candidates and scrutineers. Government officials say the official results reflect the results of the official count.

For electoral divisions where the difference in votes was 101 or more ballots, Returning Officers are said to have reviewed all Statement of Votes, rejected ballots, and objected to ballots.

In both cases, all tabulator results were reviewed and verified.

In Rimbey-Rocky Mountain House-Sundre, the UCP’s Jason Nixon received 15,571 votes for 69.5 per cent of total votes in the riding.

Upon announcement of the official results, candidates now have until June 16, 2023, to make an application to the Court of King’s Bench to request a judicial recount, if desired.
