Poore Makes it a Race in Ward 6

It's been nearly two months since nominations for the 2014 Municipal election were opened, and since those first fast and furious couple of weeks in January, things have kind of chilled out when it comes to the local ballot. That might explain why when a new name joined the race earlier this week, I missed it. In re-dressing that oversight, I introduce to you now Keith Poore, the latest candidate to thow his hat into the ring to join city council.

Election Year Day 2 - More Names on the Ballot

Either an indication of how busy the local balllot's going to be this election, or that there are a lot of eager beavers out there, three more names have been added to the rolls for the 2014 Municipal election. As per the Guelph Votes website, three people have added themselves to October 27 election, including two for mayor and one for city council. 

The Election Year Begins

If you're still hung over from the New Year's festivities. sober up(!) because the 2014 Municipal Election is officially underway as of today. Today was the first day that potential candidates could file papers to run for mayor or city councillor in the October 27th election, and both here in Guelph and in Toronto, some early birds were hoping that they have what it takes to get the worm.
