On June 22, 2024, members of the Alberta New Democratic Party voted on a successor for Rachel Notley after she announced her intent to resign as the party leader, after a decade in the position, as soon as her successor is chosen. Notley served as Premier of Alberta from 2015 to 2019 and was Leader of the Opposition at the time of her announcement, which was made almost eight months after the NDP lost the May 2023 Alberta general election.
Naheed Nenshi won the leadership election on the first ballot with 86% support and 62,746 votes, which the Alberta NDP claims is the most individual votes cast for a leadership candidate in any provincial party leadership race in Canadian history.
