Regional Profile
New Brunswick results in federal elections are divided among geographical and linguistic lines: The Liberals fare better in the predominantly francophone eastern and northern sections of the province, while the anglophone south and west has historically tended to favour the Conservatives. In 1993, Saint John was one of only two ridings in the country to go Progressive Conservative, electing Elsie Wayne. The NDP holds one seat in northeastern New Brunswick. In 2011, the Liberals lost 2 to the Conservatives. The final result is Conservatives: 8, NDP: 1, Liberals: 1
