We’re going to compare how accurate (or inaccurate) our informal and unscientific polls were compared to the official election results.


Our poll predicted that Kathy Bedard would win the mayoral race, and she came a distant second to Mr. Mussallem. Perhaps Ms. Bedard’s supporters are more computer literate than Mr. Mussallem’s?

 
 

Our poll predicted that Jennifer Rice, Rob Vallee, Anna Ashley, Joy Thorkelson, Christo Holmes, and Judy Carlick-Pearson would be elected councillors.

The poll got 4 out of 6 right. Neither Holmes nor Vallee were elected. Instead, Nelson Kinney and Gina Garon were the other successful candidates.

 
 

Our poll suggested that Marty Bowles, Barb Gruber, Louisa Sanchez, Brian Johnson, Tanya Boudier and Bart Kuntz would be elected.

Neither Johnson nor Boudier were elected. Instead, Last and Huddlestone were successful.
