The faces will be different, but the Saskatchewan Party will still represent people in Kindersley, Swift Current and Melfort following landslide wins in Thursday’s byelections.

Ken Francis collected 88.1 per cent of the vote to replace longtime MLA Bill Boyd in Kindersley after he resigned last August.

Everett Hindley was elected in Swift Current, the riding former premier Brad Wall represented for nearly 20 years.

Todd Goudy will be the MLA for Melfort with 78.5 per cent of the votes. The riding lost its representation last November when Kevin Phillips died suddenly.
