There will be at least two names on the ballot in the upcoming Melfort riding byelection.

The Saskatchewan NDP have announced they will nominate their candidate on Jan. 29th at the Kerry Vickar Centre. The potential candidates are Betty Nippi-Albright and Lorne Schroeder.
 
Todd Goudy was nominated as the Sask Party candidate earlier this week.
 
The Saskatchewan Liberals expressed interest in running a candidate but have nothing confirmed yet.  
 
A spokesperson for the Sask Party said no firm date has been set yet for the byelection but project it will take place either late February or early March.
