The Queen City will be casting multiple ballots this fall, as both municipal and provincial elections will take place in the following month.
The provincial vote will see Premier Scott Moe looking to hold onto his post against a number of challengers, most notably New Democratic Party leader Ryan Meili. While Moe’s Saskatchewan Party has held power in Saskatchewan since 2007, Moe himself will be looking to win his first election after becoming party leader two years ago. Meili will be looking to improve his party’s representation, as the NDP currently only holds 13 seats compared to the SP’s 46. Regina could be a key battleground, as it contains 12 ridings, including the vacant Regina Walsh Acres and Elphinstone-Centre.
The Regina municipal election will feature a crowded field of candidates, including nine mayoral contenders. Michael Fougere is seeking his third term as mayor, and faces familiar names, including past challengers Jim Elliot and Tony Fiacco, as well as long-serving Ward 10 councillor Jerry Flegel.
As a result, the Ward 10 council seat will also be up for grabs with no incumbent, as will Ward 8. With no party affiliation or national media attention, local candidates in Canada typically make extensive use of tools like phone canvassing, lawn Signs and banner printing to publicize their names and platforms.
The Saskatchewan municipal election will take place on October 26, while Regina will go to the polls for municipal votes on November 9. Advance voting will be held in the weeks leading up to election day.
