REGINA — Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe has called three byelections in the province. 

Two byelections are to be held in the Regina constituencies of Coronation Park and Walsh Acres. 

One is also to be held in the rural constituency of Lumsden-Morse, located outside Saskatchewan's capital. 

The province says all three byelections are to be held on Aug. 10, with advanced voting expected to start on Aug. 3. 

The Saskatchewan Party government and Opposition NDP have nominated candidates for all three constituencies. 

Political watchers expect the byelections to be hotly contested by all parties.
