Susan Holt, leader of the New Brunswick Liberal Party, is preparing to put her name on the ballot.
"It seems like this is something the premier wants, so we are getting prepared,” said Holt.
A statement from the premier's office did not confirm nor deny a fall election.
"I know there is a lot of speculation about a possible fall election. As with all of the decisions I make as Premier, my focus is always on doing what is best for New Brunswick," said Premier Blaine Higgs in a news release Wednesday.
"The question we face is will the focus be on delivering results for New Brunswickers or will it be 12 months of political drama causing instability and stagnation in government? My focus and responsibility is to the citizens of this province ensuring we continue on our path of demonstrated continuous improvement."
