This is the best summary I could come up with:
The NDP sailed to victory Tuesday night with a solid win that cements leader Wab Kinew as Manitoba's first First Nations premier and also nets the party enough seats to form a majority government, CBC projects.
PC incumbent cabinet ministers Rochelle Squires and James Teitsma will lose their seats in Riel and Radisson, respectively, the CBC projects.
Tom Lindsey (Flin Flon) and Eric Redhead (Thompson) in the north, and Adrien Sala (St. James), Lisa Naylor (Wolseley), Nahanni Fontaine (St. Johns), Uzoma Asagwara (Union Station), Mintu Sandhu (The Maples), Matt Wiebe (Concordia), Bernadette Smith (Point Douglas), Malaya Marcelino (Notre Dame), Jelynn Dela Cruz (Radisson), Jim Maloway (Elmwood) and Mike Moyes (Riel) have also scored victories for the NDP in Winnipeg, CBC News projects.
Trevor King will take Lakeside and Kelvin Goertzen will hold onto Steinbach for the PCs, while Josh Guenter will win Borderland for the party, CBC News projects.
Doyle Piwniuk also is holding onto his seat for the PCs in Turtle Mountain, and Jodie Byram will win the Agassiz riding, the CBC projects.
"We know it's going to be a tough battle, but we've done the work," he said at the PC election night headquarters at the Canad Inns Fort Garry location on Pembina Highway.
