Below are the official results for the 2021 Municipal Election.
Please note that there are slight differences between the total number of votes for each candidate in the official results and the total number of votes for each candidate in the results that were posted on election night.
As these differences pertain to the Office of Councillor, they are due to eleven (11) extra ballots which were found in Referendum and Senate Vote ballot boxes in the days following the election and, as a result, were not counted on election night. Ballots cast for the Referendum Vote were counted on Tuesday (October 19) and ballots cast for the Senate Vote were counted on Wednesday (October 20).
These differences are also in part due to a recount that took place on Thursday (October 21) to confirm that Neil Sieben in fact secured the sixth and final seat on Council. This recount took place at the request of Ken Heggie and was conducted in the presence of scrutineers for both candidates.
As these differences pertain to the Office of Mayor, they are due to two (2) ballots that were wrongfully marked as spoiled and therefore counted. One of these ballots contained a vote for Jim Depew; the other contained a vote for Brian Eakett.
Thanks to everyone who came out to vote. Administration is looking forward to working with our newly elected Council and Mayor.
