Nineteen members were returned to the 17th Legislative Assembly from single member districts conducted under first-past-the-post voting system. The territory operates on a consensus government system with no political parties; the premier is subsequently chosen by and from the Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs). Three incumbent MLAs faced no challengers and were acclaimed back into office in their districts. Five new MLAs were elected, although only one defeated an incumbent; all of the other four won in open seats where the incumbent MLA did not run for re-election. New Premier and cabinet After the election the elected members of the Assembly will gather to choose the 12th Premier of the territories. Incumbent Premier Floyd Roland has chosen not to stand for re-election in his district. To date no Premier has served two full terms in the Northwest Territories since Frederick Haultain, who won his second term in 1902. After the members of the legislature have elected the new Premier, the MLAs elect the cabinet ministers from the remaining Assembly members and the Premier then assigns portfolios to the new ministers.http://www.assembly.gov.nt.ca/_live/pages/wpPages/publicinformationfactsheets.aspx Government of the NWT, Assembly - Fact Sheets Assembly.gov.nt.ca February 16, 2012 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20071225102109/http://www.assembly.gov.nt.ca/_live/pages/wpPages/publicinformationfactsheets.aspx December 25, 2007 mdy-all Election summary Election summary# of candidatesPopular voteIncumbentNew#%Elected candidates1156,19352.66%Acclaimed candidates30Defeated candidates1275,56747.34%Total4711,760100%Voter Turnout %Rejected Ballots Districts and candidates DistrictWinnerSecondThirdFourthFifthIncumbentDeh ChoMichael Nadli394Michael McLeod226   Michael McLeodFrame LakeWendy Bisaro328Duff Spence240Bernard LeBlanc30  Wendy BisaroGreat SlaveGlen Abernethy476Patrick Scott266   Glen AbernethyHay River NorthRobert Bouchard363Roy Courtoreille265Beatrice Lepine133  Paul Delorey†Hay River SouthJane Groenewegen465Marc Miltenberger339   Jane GroenewegenInuvik Boot LakeAlfred Moses216Chris Larocque211Grant Gowans63Paul Voudrach18 Floyd Roland†Inuvik Twin LakesRobert McLeod Acclaimed    Robert McLeodKam LakeDave Ramsay356Darwin Rudkevitch118Victor Mercredi45Bryan Sutherland28 Dave RamsayMackenzie DeltaFrederick Blake, Jr.190Taig Connell150Eugene Pascal127Mary Clark89Glenna Hansen66David Krutko†MonfwiJackson Lafferty739Bertha Rabesca Zoe600   Jackson LaffertyNahendehKevin Menicoche431Bertha Norwegian127   Kevin MenicocheNunakputJackie Jacobson312Eddie Dillon199   Jackie JacobsonRange LakeDaryl Dolynny277David Wasylciw210Beaton Mackenzie167Norman Smith64 VacantSahtuNorman Yakeleya463Rocky Norwegian312   Norman YakeleyaThebachaMichael Miltenberger526Peter Martselos426Jeannie Marie-Jewell263  Michael MiltenbergerTu NedheTom Beaulieu Acclaimed    Tom BeaulieuWeledehBob Bromley624Mark Bogan79   Bob BromleyYellowknife CentreRobert Hawkins427Arlene Hache312   Robert HawkinsYellowknife SouthBob McLeod Acclaimed    Bob McLeod Note: Bold denotes a member of the cabinet and speaker of the Assembly, the Premier is denoted in bold italic.
