Canadian federal elections have provided the following results in Prince Edward Island.
From 1988 to 2006, Prince Edward Island did not elect a non-Liberal MP. In 2008, the Conservatives finally broke through in the province, as Gail Shea was elected in Egmont. Lawrence MacAulay won by less than 300 votes in both 1997 and 2000, but won with a commanding majority in 2004. In 2011 PEI had an unusual result in which the Conservatives had the most votes province-wide, but won only one out of the four provincial seats. This was due to a comfortable margin of victory in Egmont, and closer losses in the other three ridings. In 2015, the Liberals easily swept all 4 seats. They repeated the sweep in 2019, but with smaller margins due to a large rise in Green support. A third Liberal sweep occurred in 2021, with the Greens support crumbling down to 9%.
