Unopposed Councillors and Heated Mayor’s Race | Ottawa News

Four councillors are running unopposed in the upcoming municipal election, marking the first time since 2003 that acclaimed candidates will fill council seats. With 77 candidates across 24 wards and eight mayoral hopefuls—including Mayor Mark Sutcliffe’s challengers Jeff Leiper and Alex Lawson—the race is heating up. Some wards are fiercely contested, like Ward One with six challengers against incumbent Matt Luloff, while others are wide open, such as Ward Six where nine candidates vie for the seat left vacant by Glen Gower. Voting begins October 1st, with polls closing October 26th—watch to see how voters decide between crowded fields and uncontested races.
