- The 1998 Alberta Senate nominee election, formally the 2nd Alberta Senate nominee election of Alberta was held on October 19, 1998, to nominate appointments to the Senate of Canada. The Senate nominee election was held in conjunction with Alberta municipal elections under the Local Authorities Election Act. The second Senate nominee election took place nine years following the first Senate election held in 1989. Progressive Conservative Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, who was in the midst of Constitutional reforms had reluctantly promised to advise the Governor General to appoint the winner of the 1989 election as a Senator from Alberta, resulting in Reform Party candidate Stan Waters being called to the Senate on June 11, 1990. The situation in 1998 was much different, with Liberal Prime Minister Jean Chrétien advising Governor General Adrienne Clarkson to appoint two Senators for Alberta shortly before the scheduled Senate nominee election. Despite these appointments, two senator nominees were selected in a block vote, that was broken down along municipal electoral districts instead of provincial electoral districts. It was conducted by Elections Alberta, and candidates were registered with provincial parties. Bert Brown and Ted Morton, both nominated by the Reform Party, won the election, but were not appointed to the Senate before their terms expired. No other provincial political party nominated candidates. (en)
