On The Electorate's poll average as of October 23, 2026, NDP would hold Lethbridge-West, with 59.5% to 33.6%. That is very likely (99% of simulated elections).
Pale bar: 2023 result. Solid bar: projection. Shares of all votes cast.
Projected margin: NDP by 25.9 points (2023: NDP by 11.4). UCP win Lethbridge-West if their lead province-wide is more than about +28.0 points; the poll average puts it at +2.1.
Province-wide lead in points (UCP minus NDP). The black line is where Lethbridge-West changes hands, assuming every region moves together.
Lethbridge-West is projected from the Rest of Alberta poll average: UCP 58.4%, NDP 33.3%.
This is a model, not a poll of Lethbridge-West: pollsters do not survey individual divisions. It starts from the 2023 result here and moves it by the change in the Rest of Alberta 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.
Shannon Phillips (NDP) won Lethbridge-West in the May 29, 2023 Alberta general election with 53.9% of the vote, 2,557 votes (11.4 points) ahead of Cheryl Seaborn (UCP). 22,407 valid votes were counted; turnout was 61.5%.
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.
