VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – We should know within days whether a veteran Liberal cabinet minister will run in the 2013 provincial election.
Education Minister George Abbott insists he’s still making up his mind.
“I have not made a final decision on that,” he admits. “But I will not be keeping you in suspense for long. I’m hoping to announce a decision in that regard in the immediate days ahead.”
Liberals Harry Bloy, Kash Heed, Kevin Krueger, Dave Hayer, Murray Coell and Speaker of the House Bill Barisoff have already said they won’t run in 2013.
Abbott’s future, as well as Finance Minister Kevin Falcon’s have been a hot political topic given the Liberal government low poll numbers ahead of the May 2013 vote.
