| Last election the BC Liberals lost this seat because of vote split from the BC Reform. The Libs should take it this time...much sentiment is against incubent NDP MLA Helmut Geisbrecht. Moreover, the BC Reform is not as strong this time around. |

| While the name Liberal may not be very much liked in this region the name NDP is much more hated. Remember 56% voted against the NDP the last time and the Liberals were only 7% below their provincial average despite a strong reform vote. This was one of several ridings won by the NDP in 1996 where there was no PDA candidate. Liberal gain. |
