All existing members of City and Regional Council along with incumbent Mayor Susan Fennell have been easily re-elected.
 
Dullsville.

(Go Battalion!!)

One very interesting result, was the city councillor race in wards 2&6......the incumbent won by getting 26.8% of the vote.

Mr. Hutton was viewed as beatable......rare for a running incumbent.....what happened was that 7 people decided to run against him......spliting the rest of the vote with eachg getting between 6 - 19%.....clearly all people with some support but as each one saw the opportunity to defeat an incumbent they all jumped into the race....which insured that the incumbent was re-elected....irony at work!

The lesson is, I guess, if you want a guy out.....pick a strong candidate and run them against the incumbent....don't all try to get on the train cause, in the end, you will just make his/her seat safe!!!
 
In Toronto, it seems like Frank Di Giorgio and John Parker were the biggest incumbent beneficiaries of that situation...
 
Susan won easily and only lost support as she faced some decent competition from former councilors.


Looks like we have another Hazel in the works here lol
