Advanced voting for the Ward 3 byelection in Saint Andrews will take place on June 13.
Under the Municipal Elections Act , the chief electoral officer was required to cancel the elections and order the byelections. Following the death of former acting mayor Kate Akagi, ENB cancelled the Ward 3 election.
One other election, in Grand Lake, was also cancelled due to the death of a candidate after the close of nominations and before the day of general elections. A third by-election is also scheduled for Nashwaak Ward 2, to fill a vacancy that remained following the May elections.
There are six candidates running for the 4 council seats in Saint Andrews and four candidates vying for the 3 seats on Grand Lake council. There are two candidates in Nashwaak.
