ABOUT NANAIMO-LANTZVILLE

Nanaimo-Lantzville is a new riding for the 2024 election, created by a redistribution in 2021. It was created out of parts of the former Nanaimo and Parksville-Qualicum electoral districts.

Both of those ridings were won by New Democrats in the last election, but neither of those MLAs are running for re-election in this riding.

2020 results (Nanaimo):

  • NDP – 54%
  • Green – 23%
  • Liberal – 22%

2020 results (Parksville-Qualicum):

  • NDP – 42%
  • Liberal – 35%
  • Green – 17%
  • Conservative – 4%
  • Independent – 1%

All of the 2024 candidates have been through a campaign before: Green Lia Versaevel also ran in 2020, while Gwen O’Mahony, once an NDP MLA for Chilliwack-Hope, is running for the Conservatives. They’re joined by New Democrat George Anderson, a former Nanaimo city councillor and lawyer.
