Liberals win Yukon election, toppling Yukon Party
WHITEHORSE — There’ll be many new faces in the Yukon legislature after the Liberals swept to power in Monday’s election.
Liberal Leader Sandy Silver will go from being the lone elected member of his party to becoming the territory’s premier.
Unofficial results from Elections Yukon show the Liberals won 11 of the territory’s 19 seats Monday, with about 39 per cent of the popular vote.
They will replace a number of incumbents, including former premier and Yukon Party Leader Darrell Pasloski, who came third in his Mountainview riding.
