This is a model, not a poll of Edmonton-Ellerslie: pollsters do not survey individual divisions. It starts from the 2023 result here and moves it by the change in the Edmonton polling average, so it does not know about candidates, incumbency or local campaigns. See the Alberta poll average for the method, or open the projection in the interactive map to test your own scenario.
Rod Loyola (NDP) won Edmonton-Ellerslie in the May 29, 2023 Alberta general election with 61.7% of the vote, 4,612 votes (24.9 points) ahead of R. Singh Bath (UCP). 18,510 valid votes were counted; turnout was 55.9%.
These are the 87 divisions used in the 2023 election. New boundaries are not yet law: an electoral boundaries commission recommended 89 divisions in March 2026, the government rejected that report in April, and a legislative committee was asked to draw a new map, aiming for 91 seats, by October 22, 2026. This map will be updated once new boundaries are adopted.
