Regional Profile
From 1988 to 2006, Prince Edward Island did not elect a non-Liberal MP. In 2008, the Conservatives finally broke through in the province, as Gail Shea was elected in Egmont. Lawrence MacAulay won by less than 300 votes in both 1997 and 2000, but won with a commanding majority in 2004. In 2011 PEI had an unusual result in which the Conservatives had the most votes province-wide, but won only one out of the four provincial seats. This was due to a comfortable margin of victory in Egmont, and closer losses in the other three ridings.
2008 - 40th General Election
Three Liberal incumbents were re-elected. This was the first victory for the Conservatives in Prince Edward Island since 1984.
2006 - 39th General Election
All four Liberal incumbents were re-elected. This was the sixth consecutive sweep of Prince Edward Island for the federal Liberals.
