Prince Edward Island general election, 1979
- Prince Edward Island general election, 1979
The Prince Edward Island general election, 1979 saw the election of a new Progressive Conservative government, which was elected with a majority both of seats and votes. This also marks the only appearance of the Draft Beer Party. This was the only party to contest a Prince Edward Island election that did not have a federal counterpart. The party ran a single candidate, who fared poorly.
The election was sparked when a by-election forced the Legislature into a 16-16 split between the parties, and in order to avoid a vote of no confidence the premier called an election.
