The current government had hinted that an election would be held "before Mother's Day" 2015, and such a dissolution would avoid any conflicts with the next federal election, expected to be held in October 2015.
The governing Liberals were elected to a third consecutive majority government under Premier Wade MacLauchlan. At the same time, the Progressive Conservatives made slight gains despite party leader Rob Lantz failing to win the election in Charlottetown-Brighton. The Green Party, meanwhile, won its first seat in the legislature, with leader Peter Bevan-Baker elected in Kellys 'Cross-Cumberland.Liberals win majority in P.E.I. election http://www.cbc.ca/news/elections/prince-edward-island-votes/liberals-win-majority-in-p-e-i-election-1.3059660 CBC News May 4, 2015 May 4, 2015 March 29, 2016 https://web.archive.org/web/20160329202808/http://www.cbc.ca/news/elections/prince-edward-island-votes/liberals-win-majority-in-p-e-i-election-1.3059660 live The New Democratic Party was shut out.
