B.C. NDP leader John Horgan takes campaign to Liberal heartland in Okanagan
VERNON, B.C. — The leader of British Columbia’s New Democrats is campaigning in the Liberal heartland in the Okanagan, making five stops Saturday in three ridings which are all held by Liberals.
John Horgan will traverse the Okanagan from Penticton to Vernon and back to Penticton in a final campaign push to snag seats in an area of the province where NDP victories are not common.
Horgan’s campaign will pass through Liberal Leader Christy Clark’s West Kelowna riding twice without stopping. The NDP is focusing on three seats currently held by the Liberals in Vernon, Penticton and Osoyoos.
Horgan said his campaign made stops in Clark’s riding earlier in the campaign.
