The seat previously held by the Conservative Premier of #Manitoba has been won by the NDP.
"Absolutely incredible that the Manitoba NDP has taken Tuxedo! What an endorsement of the work Premier #WabKinew and team has done so far - communicating what they stand for and then getting the job done on behalf of people."

@KimberlyNKeeping my fingers crossed! 
I think that’s “gaining”, not “holding”…
@gemelliz Absolutely great result. This is a huge win especially in Manitoba right now.
Having a Registered Nurse voted into the very riding that disgraced former Premier Stephanson held is a slapping down of her dismantling of the MB healthcare system.
The fact that Carla Compton beat out zionist lawyer Lawrence Pinksky is just icing.

"This is what's possible when you don’t split the vote. Vote for the party which has the best chance of beating the conservative candidate."
@gemelliz For the curious, Lawrence Pinsky’s campaign statement. He lost with this: https://www.pclawrencepinsky.com/
@pinhman Looks like Tuxedo didn't fall for the Conservatives tired old slogans. "Cut Taxes" & "Get Tough On Crime"
@gemelliz Both Stefanson & Gary Filmon held this riding as premiers of Manitoba. The NDP win in Tuxedo is significant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuxedo_(electoral_district)

This is excellent news. (Gives me hope for us.)
@themamiyaman@mstdn.plus@gemelliz 2 previous Premiers!
@gemelliz this is great news. Thank you for following it.
@nelsonshine You're very welcome; its a pleasure to share some hopeful news. Go #Manitoba!
@gemelliz I gag a little now when progressive and conservative are in the same sentence.
