Governments

governments: Firstly, only the Liberals and Progressive Conservatives have formed governments, according to CBC. Secondly, they win three elections, and then they lose. Since the election of 1966 Islanders have handed the keys to government in an astonishingly regular pattern. The only exception was 1978, when the Liberals eked out a bare 17 to 15 majority to win a fourth term. In this coming election, it should particularly be noted that changing the premier in mid-term in the past also apparently had no impact on this pattern. This trend has held despite the vast waves of change that have rolled across the landscape: generations of political leaders, issues of life and death importance that have faded into history, even differences in how MLAs are elected.
