Does anyone know where to get good references for this topic? Bearcat, you are a lot better than me if you can remember back this far, but do you have any suggestions? Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 21:22, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The most obvious place to look would be Prince Edward Island's newspapers, since they would undoubtedly have election coverage and other relevant news relating to the electoral districts — those aren't archived in Newspapers.com at all, and I've only ever found Charlottetown Guardian or Summerside Journal-Pioneer hits in ProQuest from the 2000s forward (i.e. after the old style of PEI electoral districts was replaced with the contemporary version), but many appear to be available from the University of Prince Edward Island's Island Newspapers database. There might also be some books that turn up useful information in a Google Books search. I edit on film much more than political history these days, so this hasn't been on my radar of late, but I'll see if I can spare some time to work on this a bit in the next few weeks.
