Advance voting begins June 8 and runs through June 15, Elections Manitoba said, at the Tuxedo Local Election Office (3525 Roblin Boulevard or the Saint Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church (2255 Grant Avenue). Advance ballots can be cast between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., or noon and 6 p.m. on the Sunday that falls within that week.

Elections Manitoba said it also provides services including language and sign language interpreters, braille ballots and large-print lists of candidates, and more.

As of Thursday, three provincial parties have nominated candidates for the race. The governing Manitoba NDP nominated Carla Compton Tuesday, while the Manitoba Liberal Party has announced Jamie Pfau as its candidate for Tuxedo. The Green Party of Manitoba announced Thursday that its leader, Janine Gibson, is also vying for the seat.

There has been no word about who the Progressive Conservatives will nominate to potentially replace Stefanson in Tuxedo, although the party said Monday that three people are in the running — including a former MLA — and an announcement should be expected soon.
