This article provides a summary of results for the general elections to the Canadian territory of Yukon's unicameral legislative body, the Yukon Legislative Assembly, formerly the Yukon Territorial Council. The number of members in the Yukon assembly has increased over time, from six appointed members in the late 1800s, to eight (only two elected) in Yukon's first election in 1900, to the current nineteen (all elected).
From 1898 to 1978, the legislative body in Yukon was the Yukon Territorial Council. This body did not act as the primary government, but was a non-partisan advisory body to the Commissioner of the Yukon. At the beginning it did not have law-making ability and was composed of appointed members or mixture of appointed and elected members.
Political parties were used on some pre-1920 elections but then fell out of use. Parties were introduced in 1978, when the Yukon Legislative Assembly was established.
Yukon used multi-member districts during part of its early history. In 1903 and from 1909 to 1920, two members were elected at a time in all or some of its districts. Other times it used single-member districts.
Since 1978, each riding (electoral district) has elected one member by first past the post to the Yukon Legislative Assembly. Political parties were officially recognized and registered beginning in 1978.[1] Yukon is the only Canadian territory to have a partisan legislature.
The chart on the right shows the information graphically, with the most recent elections on the right (going as far back as the introduction of political parties in 1978). The Yukon Party (which was named the Yukon Progressive Conservative Party prior to 1992) has been the most successful since political parties were officially recognised, having won six out of ten elections. The NDP have won three elections, and the Liberal party have won two elections.
