After months of campaigning, the followers of the United Conservative Party have spoken.

 Jason Kenney, Brian Jean and Doug Schweitzer gathered in Calgary last night to hear the results of a leadship campaign thats been running since July. In the end, it was Jason Kenney who was elected leader, claiming 61% of the total vote. Jean would earn 31.5% of the voter base and Shweitzer coming 3rd with 7.3% of the total vote.

Neither Jean nor Kenney were available for comments after the win, but Kenney will hold press conference at 1:30pm today.

Though Kenney has officially won leadership of the UCP, he does not yet have a seat in legislature.
