The Register of Candidates is a record of all candidates who have given notice to Edmonton Elections that they intend to seek nomination for office in the next election, as required by the Local Authorities Election Act.
As Edmonton Elections administers elections for Edmonton City Council, Edmonton School District and Edmonton Catholic Separate School District, all candidates registered to run in these jurisdictions will be listed in the Register of Candidates.
