On September 17, I submitted my nomination papers to run for Town Council. To my surprise, 11 other people also did the same, so 12 of us are in the running for 6 positions. Since 5 incumbent councillors are running, and incumbents can be hard to beat, the competition for the one empty spot could be intense (as intense as small town politics gets, anyway!).
But how great that there will be a real election this year after everyone was elected by acclamation in the previous election. It's a good feeling to win an election because you know people supported you.
I hope we get a record voter turnout on October 15. All polls are at the Al Adair Rec Centre. Advance polls are on October 9 at the swimming pool and October 12 at Heritage Towers.
