The Independent Working Class Association stood for the first time in a general election, having previously only stood in local council elections.
2015 Prince Edward Island general election would avoid any conflicts with the next federal election, expected to be held in October 2015.

The Green Party, meanwhile, won its first seat in the legislature, with leader Peter Bevan-Baker elected in Kellys Cross-Cumberland. The New Democratic Party was shut out.
