Yukon election, 2016

[MaxQue]

I agree with Hatman. These things are more like a small town city council election than a normal provincial one.

It also has the population of one.

The deadline for candidates to declare has passed and neither former Speaker David Laxton nor, it seems, independent Elvis Presley is running.

The only independent mentioned in this story is Viktor Kisoun in Watson Lake.

Viktor Kisoun was defeated running for the Federal NDP nomination in Yukon for the 2015 election.

According to the official list of candidates, every riding is a YP-Lib-NDP race, but:

Greens in Copperbelt South, Lake Laberge, Pelly-Nisutlin, Porter Creek North and Riverdale North + an Independent in Watson Lake.

Only two retirements, disgracied former Speaker David Laxton in Porter Creek Centre, and YP Community Services minister, Currie Dixon, in Copperbelt North (he is only aged 31).

Two YP incumbents are changing seats, the YP Education minister Doug Graham leaves Porter Creek North to run against the NDP leader in Whitehorse Centre (after announcing he would retire) and YP Energy, Mines, Ressources, Highways and Public Works minister Scott Kent leaves Riverdale North to run against an NDP incumbent (and minister 1996-2000) in Copperbelt South, which won by 3 votes last time.
