The Canadian Press decision desk is projecting that Elenore Sturko, leader of CentreBC, has lost her attempt to reclaim her former Surrey South seat.

The projection was carried in a Canadian Press news alert published by Vancouver Is Awesome. The alert's headline frames the outcome as a loss of the seat for CentreBC as Sturko sought a return to the riding.

Sturko is a former RCMP officer. She now heads CentreBC, and the projected result concerns her personally contesting a Surrey South seat she held before.

Why it matters locally

Surrey South is a riding in one of Metro Vancouver's fastest-growing cities. A party leader's bid to win a seat there is a notable race for voters in the area.

This report relies on the single Canadian Press alert, and it is the only source NORTHLINE has for the projection.
