    ELECTORALCHANGE.CA Alberta 2008 Provincial Election as Analyzed With PRP A comparison of the first-past-the-post results to PRP results Dave Brekke and Ted Dean 9/1/2013 A compilation of the results of the 2008 Alberta provincial election compared to the results of PRP electoral system results using the same election data. Alberta 2008 Provincial Election as Analyzed With PRP Summary To acquire proportional seats without adding seats, two adjacent ridings were made into one riding with the assistance of Alberta friend, Larry MacKillop. Eight-two ridings became forty-one ridings plus forty one proportional seats. The proportional seats helped reach a closer match between votes of political parties and seats won by them. Ten electoral areas were established to give relative closeness to proportionally elected MLAs and the voters who helped to elect them. Each electoral area had four, six, eight or ten MLAs, half representing ridings and half representing their electoral area. For electoral area results, see below. For more on how this system would work and other election results go to www.electoralchange.ca . The Riding of West Yellowhead is not included in this analysis to allow for an even number of ridings. That riding stays its present size, has preferential voting, but will not be in a proportional electoral area. 1 Alberta 2008 Provincial Election as Analyzed With PRP General Comparison of Systems on Alberta 2008 Provincial Election Results All Seat Groupings 10 Seats or Less Political Party PC Liberal NDP Wildrose Green Other Popular

His Honour the Honourable the Lieutenant Governor entered the Assembly and took his seat on the Throne. Speaker's Address to the Lieutenant Governor The Speaker said: May it please Your Honour, the Legislative Assembly have elected me as their Speaker, though I am but little able to fulfil the important duties thus assigned to me. 1 If in the performance of those duties I should at any time fall into error, I pray that the fault may be imputed to me and not the Assembly, whose servant I am, and who, through me, the better to enable them to discharge their duties to their Queen and Province, hereby claim all their undoubted rights and privileges, especially that they may have freedom of speech in their debates, access to your person at all seasonable times, and that their proceedings may receive from you the most favourable construction. Statement by the Provincial Secretary The Provincial Secretary, Hon. Mr. Stevens, then said: I am commanded by His Honour the Honourable the Lieutenant Governor to declare to you that he freely confides in the duty and attachment of this Assembly to Her Majesty's person and Government, and, not doubting that the proceedings will be conducted with wisdom, temperance, and prudence, he grants and upon all occasions will recognize and allow the Assembly's constitutional privileges.
