Members of the British Columbia New Democratic Party (NDP) caucus are set to meet at the legislature today to determine an interim leader following the party’s weekend election loss. The caucus, which had 47 members before the election, has been reduced to 28. The meeting comes as the party seeks to reorganize after losing significant support.

The election results left the NDP with fewer members than the B.C. Conservatives, who gained ground in the vote. The party’s leadership structure is now in flux, with no clear successor to the former leader. The interim leader will be responsible for guiding the party until a new leader is officially chosen.

This marks the first major leadership transition for the NDP in recent years. The party had previously faced internal challenges, but the recent election loss has intensified pressure for change. The interim leader will need to navigate the political landscape and rebuild support among voters. The outcome of the meeting will shape the party’s future direction.
