The Sask. Party is looking to extend its 17-year reign by winning another four-year term, while the NDP is hoping to de-throne the governing party and reform government for the first time since 2007. At the dissolution of the 29th Legislature, the Sask. Party held 42 seats, the NDP held 14, four were held by independents and one seat was vacant.
