The British Columbia Liberal Party (BC Liberals) formed the government during the 39th Parliament prior to this general election, initially under the leadership of Premier Gordon Campbell then after his resignation, Christy Clark. The British Columbia New Democratic Party (BC NDP) under the leadership of Carole James, and then Adrian Dix, formed the Official Opposition. The BC Green Party under the leadership of Jane Sterk and the BC Conservative Party under John Cummins were also included in polling, although neither party had representation at the end of the 39th Parliament.The Liberal Party won its fourth straight majority; Clark was defeated in her riding, but she was re-elected to the legislature in a subsequent by-election in Westside-Kelowna on July 10, 2013,"B.C.'s Premier Christy Clark wins byelection, returns to legislature" {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160106223049weblink |date=January 6, 2016}}.

The NDP remained the official opposition, losing two seats, and the Green Party won its first seat.Despite their victory, the Liberals had been consistently several points behind the opposition New Democrats in every public opinion poll throughout the campaign."Why were polls so wrong about the B.C. election?" {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130531182935weblink |date=May 31, 2013}}. CBC News, May 15, 2013. Even poll results released on the last day of the campaign suggested that the New Democrats had an eight to nine percentage point margin over the Liberals."Why were the polls completely wrong about the B.C. election?" {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170303123137weblink |date=March 3, 2017}}. The Globe and Mail, May 15, 2013. Only one pollster, Forum Research, had released a poll which suggested that the Liberals were close enough that a victory was even possible for them, although even that poll had the New Democrats ahead by two percentage points. The Liberals' upset victory led to significant media debate about the quality of opinion polling in Canadian elections.

Timing

Section 23 of British Columbia's Constitution Act provides that general elections occur on the second Tuesday in May of the fourth calendar year after the last election.Constitution Act, s. 23 {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110920050249weblink |date=September 20, 2011}}. As an election was held on May 12, 2009, the next election was scheduled for May 14, 2013.
