Avi Lewis clinched a commanding first-ballot victory in the New Democratic Party's 2026 leadership election at the Winnipeg convention today, March 29, securing nearly 40,000 votes from delegates and members who voted March 9-28, far outpacing rivals Tanille Johnson, Heather McPherson, Bianca Mugyenyi, Rob Ashton, and Tony McQuail. This followed Jagmeet Singh's resignation after the NDP's sharp decline to 7 seats in the prior federal election, with Lewis dominating via superior fundraising and broad party support. Traders reflect 100% implied probability on Lewis as the new federal NDP leader, awaiting formal certification; only an unprecedented recount or procedural challenge could shift the outcome.
