thumping Conservative majority government <\/a>on Saturday night.<\/p>\nThe NDP sustained an electoral erasing in Surrey.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll be offering my resignation as premier,\u201d Eby told supporters a mere hour and a half after the polls closed.<\/p>\n
New Democrat incumbents Surrey-Newton MLA Jessie Sunner, Surrey-Guildford MLA Garry Begg, Surrey-Fleetwood MLA Jagrup Brar and Surrey City Centre Amna Shah were not re-elected.<\/p>\n
\u201cI did everything possible I could do,\u201d said Brar, who had served six terms in Surrey.<\/p>\n
Sunner told the Now-Leader the plan now is for the NDP to rebuild, come back and form government once again.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have a lot of working and rebuilding to do and also we look forward to holding this new government to account,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Begg, too, focused on looking forward.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s unfortunate, the ending, but we have a job to do that will continue,\u201d Begg said.<\/p>\n
Shah, speaking to the crowd at the banquet hall, thanked everyone for their efforts in the campaign.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe put every bit of our soul into this campaign, and guess what? It\u2019s not over. It\u2019s not, because the heart that you have, the spirit that you have, your fight for justice in this province does not stop tonight,\u201d she said, to the cheers of supporters.<\/p>\n
Surrey voters are sending 10 Conservatives to Victoria, including Surrey-Panorama\u2019s Bryan Tepper, Surrey-White Rock\u2019s Trevor Halford, Surrey-Serpentine\u2019s Jessy Sahota, Surrey North\u2019s Mandeep Dhaliwal, Surrey-South\u2019s Megan Knight, Surrey-Guildford\u2019s Garry Thind, Surrey-Newton\u2019s Harj Dhaliwal, Surrey-City Centre\u2019s Zeeshan Wahla, Surrey-Fleetwood\u2019s Gary Purewal and Surrey-Cloverdale\u2019s Nicholas Cartmell.<\/p>\n
In the October 2024 provincial election the NDP lost major ground in Surrey after a night of tight races, with the Conservatives elected in six of 10 ridings with the NDP elected in the remaining four.<\/p>\n
As it stood heading into that particular election campaign, NDP orange had been the dominant colour in Surrey, holding seven of Surrey\u2019s existing nine ridings (one new riding \u2013 Surrey-Serpentine River \u2013 was created for the 2024 election). <\/p>\n
In 2024, voters in Surrey City Centre elected Amna Shah (NDP); in Surrey-Cloverdale Elenore Sturko (Conservative) was elected; in Surrey-Fleetwood Jagrup Brar (NDP) was re-elected; in Surrey-Guildford Garry Begg (NDP) was re-elected; and in Surrey-Newton Jessie Sunner (NDP) was elected.<\/p>\n
In Surrey North Mandeep Dhaliwal (Conservative) was elected; in Surrey-Panorama Bryan Tepper (Conservative) won and in Surrey-Serpentine Linda Hepner (Conservative) was elected.<\/p>\n
In Surrey South Brent Chapman (Conservative) was elected as was Trevor Halford (Conservative) in Surrey-White Rock.<\/p>\n
