[edit] 1999 election
The constituency of Wood River was initially won by the Liberals, but the result was overturned by the courts and the Saskatchewan Party won the ensuing by-election.
The Elections Saskatchewan website does not take into account that by-election for its overall 1999 results regarding the number of seats obtained by each party. [1] It is my understanding that this is standard procedure when the election in one riding is cancelled (e.g. the 1994 Quebec provincial election results were not modified to include the 1997 by-election results in Bertrand even though that by-election was cause by the cancellation of the original election in that riding due to fraud). [2][3][4]
As such I changed the results to include 25 Saskatchewan Party seats and four Liberals.

[edit] 1929 election
This recently got changed from a Conservative win to a Liberal win, withe the addition of a note: "The Liberals lost a motion of no-confidence shortly after the election and government was formed by a Conservative-Progessive coalition." However, the colour bar and bolded numbers shows who won the election and intially formed the goverment. I would argue that the Liberals won the election and formed a goverment... it's just they went onto loose goverment status. This is a list of elections rather than goverments.
