Some Lethbridge residents will be heading to the polls next month to elect their next MLA.

The Government of Alberta announced the Lethbridge-West byelection will take place on Dec. 18.

Candidate nominations will be open from Nov. 20 to Nov. 30 at 2 p.m.

Advance voting will run from Dec. 10 to Dec. 14. Voting places will then be open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on election day.

Due to the Canada Post strike, the province said “Where to Vote” cards will not be mailed to voters.

For advance voting, there will be two voting locations. For voting on election day, voters can find their voting location online.

Voters can also contact Elections Alberta at 1-877-422-VOTE (8683) for help.

Who’s running?

Last year, Shannon Phillips of the NDP claimed the seat with 12,083 votes – 53 per cent of the vote.

Phillips resigned on July 1, citing a desire to get out of the public eye and spend more time with family.
