A contested NDP nomination in Red Deer is not something that I imagined would happen during this election (or during my lifetime for that matter…). Farmer and Teacher Stuart Sommerville will be duking it out against recent Red Deer Mayoral candidate Matt Chapin (who was 21-years old when he faced off against Mayor Morris Flewwelling in the October 2007 election) for the September 14 nomination meeting.
The nominated candidate will face off against first-time Conservative candidate Earl Dreeshen and Liberal Garfield Marks in the riding vacated by longtime Conservative MP Bob Mills.
The list of nominated federal election candidates in Alberta will be updated as more candidates are nominated.
