Sims won this Surrey riding by more than 13.2 per cent in 2020, but the Conservatives have been paying particular attention to Surrey and polls show it could be paying off. In a riding to watch, Sims will face off against Conservative Bryan Tepper, who was moved from Surrey-White Rock.

For many voters, their riding may have changed in this upcoming provincial election.

Following the 2020 provincial election, the Electoral Boundaries Commission was required to complete a redistribution of seats.

After the final report was released, an act was passed in 2023 to increase seats in the B.C. legislature from 87 to 93. This includes four new ridings in the Lower Mainland, one on Vancouver Island, and one in the Interior.

In addition, 72 ridings had their boundaries adjusted. Forty-one ridings had their names changed.

Voters will decide who will represent Surrey-Panorama during the upcoming B.C. provincial election on Oct. 19, 2024.
