Kamloops-South Thompson
Kamloops-South Thompson is a provincial electoral district in British Columbia, Canada established by the Electoral Districts Act, 2008. It will come into effect upon the next dissolution of the BC Legislature, currently scheduled for April 2009, and will first be contested in the ensuing election.
Member of Legislative Assembly
On account of the realignment of electoral boundaries, most incumbents did not represent the entirety of their listed district during the preceding legislative term. Claude Richmond, British Columbia Liberal Party was initially elected during the 2005 election to the Kamloops riding. He is not seeking re-election. Kevin Krueger, BC Liberal will seek re-election in the adjacent redrawn riding of Kamloops-South Thompson during the 2009 election rather than in the riding of Kamloops-North Thompson.
