Alberta Premier Danielle Smith speaks at a press conference in Edmonton, Thursday, July 25, 2024.

Alberta election officials say they are working to get the word out as they deal with a Canada Post strike ahead of a Christmas-week byelection in Lethbridge-West.Posted: Nov 28, 2024 3:27 PM EST | Last Updated: 2 hours ago

The office has a plan in motion to inform residents using print, radio, media and online ads, and by distributing flyers across the riding with general information. Although Bell said Elections Alberta aims to be in a state of election readiness at all times, the timing of the Lethbridge vote has been a political football.

Nenshi said Smith waited until the last second to call the race because, he said, lower voter turnout only benefits the UCP. Smith has said she was waiting for Nenshi — who does not have a seat in the legislature — to declare his intentions to run for a seat so that two byelections could be called at once.
