By 11:15 p.m. on Monday evening, the UCP had won 33 seats, compared to just 20 for the NDP.

While the overall election results are still trickling in throughout most of Alberta, the count in Airdrie-Cochrane is at a point where Guthrie can be declared the projected winner over second-place Shaun Fluker of the NDP. As of 10:40 p.m., with 10 of 19 polls reporting, Guthrie holds a commanding 9,722–6,928 lead over Fluker. 

This marks Guthrie's second election win, after he was also successful in his first political election for the UCP back in 2019. 

“Overall it is very clear that Airdrie wants to see a UCP government, and that happened here tonight,” Pitt told the Airdrie City View, shortly after being declared the projected winner. “I do feel strong support from the community. I spent tons of hours at the doors, walked many steps, and talked to many people. The people of Airdrie were pretty clear that they want to see a strong economy led by a strong, stable government."

The letter requested Guthrie to retract and clarify his statements regarding construction funding approvals received for RVS in Budget 2023.
