On April 23, Prince Edward Island held a provincial election.  The legislature has 27 seats, but no election was held in one district because the Green Party nominee died just before the vote.  That district will be filled later.

Among the 26 seats that were decided, the Progressive Conservative Party won 12 seats, the Green Party won eight, and the Liberal Party won six.  Because the Green Party placed second, it becomes the official opposition party.

Before the election, there were 16 Liberals, eight Progressive Conservatives, two Greens, and one independent.  See the wikipedia article about the election.

On April 23, the Colorado House passed HB 19-1278.  Among other things, it increases the number of signatures for independent candidates, and the nominees of unqualified parties (but it does not change the presidential ballot access requirement).  It raises the non-presidential statewide petition from 1,000 signatures to 10,500 signatures, and imposes a severe congressional district distribution requirement.  Now the bill goes to the Senate.

On April 23, Prince Edward Island held a referendum on whether to use proportional representation in future elections for officers of that province.  The yes vote was slightly higher than 49%.  See this story.  Thanks to Cliff Thies for the link.
