Highwood is a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of Alberta, Canada. It is currently represented by Progressive Conservative member, George Groeneveld. The district was created in 1971 out of the old Okotoks-High River riding and the North part of Pincher Creek-Crowsnest.
[edit] Riding historyExcept for the early years between 1971 and 1975 when Social Credit was represented here, this riding has been a Progressive Conservative stronghold. The most high profile race in the district came during the 1982 Alberta general election. In that election Western Canada Concept leader Gordon Kesler was defeated by Progressive Conservative Harry Alger after Kessler decided against running as an Incumbent in his district Olds-Didsbury, which he had won months earlier. Kessler was defeated by a large margin. Kesler made himself uncredible by reneging on his promise to move to Olds-Didsbury if he was elected. [edit] Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs)

Voters had the option of selecting 4 Candidates on the Ballot [edit] 2004 Student Vote
On November 19, 2004 a Student Vote was conducted at participating Alberta schools to parallel the 2004 Alberta general election results. The vote was designed to educate students and simulate the electoral process for persons who have not yet reached the legal majority. The vote was conducted in 80 of the 83 provincial electoral districts with students voting for actual election candidates. Schools with a large student body that reside in another electoral district had the option to vote for candidates outside of the electoral district then where they were physically located.
