The campaign period for the NDP leadership in BC is officially underway.
The party said over the weekend that voting to replace premier John Horgan could begin as early as Nov. 13, with results and a new leader expected by Dec. 3.
The party has appointed former cabinet minister Elizabeth Cull to oversee the leadership race as chief electoral officer.
Premier Horgan announced last month he would not be seeking another term.
"I look forward to seeing the candidates who put their names forward for this important job representing New Democrat values and serving the great people of British Columbia," said Aaron Sumexheltza, president of the B.C. NDP, in a statement.
Attorney General David Eby is considered the frontrunner in the race, even though he has yet to announced he's running for the leadership.
