The United Farmers of Manitoba won a narrow majority in the legislature. As in the previous election of 1920, the city of Winnipeg elected ten members by the single transferable ballot. All other constituencies elected one member by first-past-the-post balloting. Before the next election, the 1927 Manitoba general election, the districts outside Winnipeg switched to Instant-runoff voting. Summary This election was a watershed moment in Manitoba's political history. Since the formal introduction of partisan government in 1888, Manitoba had been governed alternately by the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party. Although the previous election of 1920 sustained the Liberals in power, it also saw the two-party dichotomy weakened by the rise of farmer and labour parliamentary blocs. Having a minority government, the Liberals did not have control of the majority in the Legislature and therefore had to depend on support from other parties to remain in power. The support had been there until MLA P.A. Talbot learned that the government had not abolished the public utilities commission as a majority of MLAs had voted for in the first season of the government. He proposed a vote of censure on the government, and when that passed, Premier Norris's cabinet resigned.Manitoba has afforded first practical test of group govt. in Canada with fatal results Edmonton Bulletin April 10, 1911 11 In 1922, the two old parties were mostly swept away by the United Farmers of Manitoba (UFM). The UFM and Progressives candidates won 25 seats out of 52. (Elections in three northern districts were deferred due to logistical reasons but eventually won by the UFM as well.) The UFM had existed for several years as a farmer's organization, but some of its members ran as "Independent-Farmers" in the 1920 election. In 1921, however, the UFM announced it would field candidates during the 1922 campaign. The UFM was opposed to partisanship, and its most prominent members insisted that it was not a "party" in the traditional sense. UFM candidates often highlighted their lack of experience in partisan politics and promised to govern the province in a restrained and responsible manner if elected to office. The UFM membership and its candidates were heterogeneous. Although many supporters were free-trade agrarian Liberals before 1920, some had been Conservatives. Some prominent UFM figures were also notable members of Manitoba's francophone community, which generally had supported the Conservative Party before 1920. The United Farmers fielded candidates in rural constituencies and also endorsed candidates of the Progressive Association running in Winnipeg. Even with these endorsements, the UFM fielded candidates in only two-thirds of the ridings. Although running their campaign on a shoestring budget, the UFM and Progressives scored a major upset, winning 25 seats out of 52. Its showing was strengthened when it won three additional seats in the deferred elections, putting its total at 28 out of 55, a slight majority and 20 seats more than the largest opposition caucus in the legislature. Not even the UFM had expected to win government. Indeed, its expectations were so low that it did not have a formal leader during the campaign. Thus, when the UFM caucus met after the election, its first task was to choose a leader who would become premier. Thomas Crerar and Robert Hoey declined invitations to govern, and the caucus turned to John Bracken, president of the Manitoba Agricultural College. Although he had no political experience, Bracken accepted the appointment. He ran in one of the deferred elections, in The Pas, and was elected. The UFM also won the deferred elections in Ethelbert and Rupertsland. This gave the government a majority of just one seat. The UFM's political arm branded itself as the Progressive Party of Manitoba. The other parties fared poorly in the 1922 campaign. The Liberals, led by outgoing premier Tobias Norris, fell from twenty-one seats to eight. The Conservatives, under their newly chosen leader Fawcett Taylor, fell from eight seats to seven. The Independent Labour Party also experienced difficulties. In the 1920 election, Manitoba's various left-wing and working-class groups submerged their differences to run a united campaign. This co-operation was successful, and eleven labour candidates were elected to form the second-largest parliamentary bloc, four of them in Winnipeg where STV was used. By the 1922 election, however, the Labour Party was beset by long-standing divisions among socialists, communists and conservative trade unionists. A total of thirteen labour candidates ran for ten seats in Winnipeg. Six were members of the ILP, and a seventh, former Social Democrat John Queen, ran as an "Independent Workers" candidate allied with the ILP. The other candidates were divided among themselves. The banned Communist Party ran three candidates under its legal front, the Workers Party. These candidates disrupted meetings of Socialist incumbent George Armstrong, and accused him of selling out his principles to moderates and social gospellers. Two conservative trade-unionists also ran as Union Labour candidates, opposing radicalism in the labour movement. Five ILP candidates were elected, and John Queen was also elected in Winnipeg. Labour leader Fred Dixon topped the poll in Winnipeg for a second time, although by a reduced margin from 1920. George Armstrong lost his Winnipeg seat, and no other labour candidates were elected. Six independent candidates were also elected. The Progressives would go on to govern Manitoba alone until 1932, when they joined forces with the Liberals to form the "Liberal-Progressive Party." The Liberal-Progressives would go on to govern Manitoba, either alone or in coalition, until 1959.

One of them, Jacob, received votes exactly equal to quota. Three were elected at the end when the field of candidates was thinned to the number of remaining open seats. Their vote tallies never did come up to quota. Eight of the front runners in the first count were elected so vote transfers affected the outcome for just two of the ten. The elected representation was more mixed and balanced than the result had been under first past the post in the two-member districts that had been in use in Winnipeg previously. 1922 election - Winnipeg (listed in order of 1st preference votes; number in brackets is the order in which elected) #EEDDAA Independent Labour (incumbent)Fred Dixon (1) 1 7971 18.0 7971 8000 #EA6D6A Liberal Robert Jacob (2) 1 4030 9.1 4030 8000 #DCDCDC Moderation League J.K.
