The 65th Prince Edward Island general election was held May 4, 2015.〔(PEI election called for May 4, 2015 )〕 Under amendments passed by the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island in 2008, Prince Edward Island elections are usually held on the first Monday of October in the fourth calendar year, unless it is dissolved earlier by the Lieutenant Governor of Prince Edward Island due to a motion of no confidence. The current government had hinted that an election would be held "before Mother's Day" 2015, and such a dissolution would avoid any conflicts with the next federal election, expected to be held in October 2015. The governing Liberals were elected to a third consecutive majority government under new leader Wade MacLauchlan, while the Progressive Conservatives made slight gains despite party leader Rob Lantz failing to win election in Charlottetown-Brighton. The Green Party, meanwhile, won its first seat in the legislature, with leader Peter Bevan-Baker elected in Kellys Cross-Cumberland. The New Democratic Party was shut out. ==Standings== Summary of the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island election results |- bgcolor=CCCCCC !rowspan="2" colspan="2" align=left|Party !rowspan="2" align=left|Party leader !rowspan="2"|Candidates !colspan="4" align=center|Seats !colspan="3" style="text-align:center;"|Popular vote |- bgcolor=CCCCCC |align="center"|2011 |align="center"|Dissol. |align="center"|2015 | style="text-align:center;"|Change | style="text-align:center;"|# | style="text-align:center;"|% | style="text-align:center;"|Change |align=left|Wade MacLauchlan |align="right"|27 |align="right"|22 |align="right"|20 |align="right"|18 |align="right"| -4 |align="right"|33,481 |align="right"|40.83% |align="right"|-10.55% |align=left|Rob Lantz |align="right"|27 |align="right"|5 |align="right"|3 |align="right"|8 |align="right"| +3 |align="right"|30,663 |align="right"|37.39% |align="right"|-2.77% |align=left|Peter Bevan-Baker |align="right"|24 |align="right"|0 |align="right"|0 |align="right"|1 |align="right"| +1 |align="right"|8,857 |align="right"|10.81% |align="right"|+6.45% |align=left|Michael Redmond |align="right"|27 |align="right"|0 |align="right"|0 |align="right"|0 |align="right"| |align="right"|8,997 |align="right"|10.97% |align="right"|+7.81% |colspan="2" align="left"|Independent |align="right"| |align="right"|0 |align="right"|1 |align="right"|0 |align="right"| |align="right"| |align="right"| |align="right"| |align=left colspan=3|Vacant |align="right"| |align="right"|3 |align="right"|- |align="right"|- |align="right"| |align="right"| |align="right"| |- | style="text-align:left;" colspan="3"|Total | style="text-align:right;"|105 | style="text-align:right;"|27 | style="text-align:right;"|27 | style="text-align:right;"|27 | style="text-align:right;"| | style="text-align:right;"|81,998 | style="text-align:right;"| | style="text-align:right;"| |} 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Prince Edward Island general election, 2015」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
