While the Dauphin riding did switch from Tory blue to NDP orange last night, the same could not be said for other neigbouring ridings.
Rick Wowchuk earned a third straight term as MLA for Swan River, as the PC candidate earned nearly 63 per cent of the vote to finish well ahead of Andy Maxwell of the NDP and Don McKenna of the Keystone Party.
Meanwhile, both Greg Nesbitt in Riding Mountain and Jodie Byram in Agassiz also had convincing wins for the PC's, with both garnering close to 64 per cent of the vote in their respective ridings.
The race in Interlake-Gimli was a little tighter, but in the end, it was incumbant PC Derek Johnson who won that riding by around 680 votes over his NDP rival.
