The Saskatchewan Party is celebrating a strong victory in west central Saskatchewan following sweeping early polling results that affirm the region’s support for the party. Rosetown-Delisle’s long-standing MLA, Jim Reiter, has secured another term, continuing his tenure with robust support from his constituents. This win solidifies Reiter’s influence in the region, where he has represented the Sask Party since 2007.
In Kindersley-Biggar, newcomer Kim Gartner has taken the helm, succeeding retired Saskatchewan Party Leader Ken Francis. Gartner’s success reflects voter confidence in the Sask Party's vision, especially amid ongoing debates about economic development and rural healthcare services in the area. Francis’s legacy as party leader laid a strong foundation, and Gartner’s leadership is expected to carry on that legacy, advancing the party's goals and initiatives.
Cypress Hills also upheld its Sask Party representation as incumbent Doug Steele earned a solid return to the Legislature. Steele’s victory speaks to the ongoing support for the party’s policies in agriculture, resource management, and small-town development.
This series of wins in west central Saskatchewan reinforces the Saskatchewan Party’s dominant presence in the province’s rural areas, reflecting a continuation of voter confidence in the party's approach to local and provincial governance.
