As this year rapidly draws to a close, many people were asking what the likelihood of a provincial election was for next year. While one Liberal leadership candidate, Christy Clark was saying there should be one if she is elected -- other leadership hopefuls have been saying no. Regardless, Elections BC says they will need six months to prepare and get voters lists ready. Keep in mind though there is at least the possibility we could have a few by-elections depending on the outcome of recall campaigns -- and depending on the winner of the NDP and Liberal leadership races.
