Voters in Winnipeg South are keeping true to the riding’s reputation as a reliable bellwether.

With Liberal Mark Carney projected to remain as the prime minister, it appears Liberal incumbent Terry Duguid will also remain as the riding’s MP.

With nearly a third of the riding’s polls counted, Duguid has 61.5 per cent of the vote — a share that has him well ahead of his winning margin in 2021. Tory Janice Morley-Lecomte has 32.7 per cent of the vote.

A longtime advocate on environmental issues, Duguid has represented the riding for a decade and was appointed climate change minister by former prime minister Justin Trudeau weeks before he stepped down.
