For the record, we were in and out of our southside Karhiio polling station in all of 10 minutes. It was steady, but not super busy. If there are lines at some polling places, that isn't the case all over the city. #yeg #yegvote #yegelection
Lots of reports of long voting lines and people leaving without voting. PLEASE, DON'T LEAVE.
Yes, it's a shit show but your vote matters. Be prepared, make friends in line, bring a lawn chair. Oh, and be kind to the election workers. #yeg #yegvote #yegelection
Aaron Paquette’s signs vandalized overnight …
Posted this video with the comment:
“Saw my signs were vandalized.
I know it’s a competition but no need to get emo. 😬
Anyways, election is tomorrow. Let cooler “heads” prevail.”

Today I saw our local incumbent councillor’s face had been cut out of a large road-side sign… very disappointed in #yeg folk that stuff like that has happened 😞

#Edmonton city election is nearing, most polls suggest the undecided vote outweighs support for candidates combined. So my question is; have you decided on your choice for mayor? Rahim Jaffer? Tim Cartmell? Tony Caterina? Andrew Knack? Michael Walters? Somebody else? #Yeg #YegElection #Election2025
I cast my ballot(s) today at the Mill Woods Library advance vote location. 🙌🏼 #yeg #yegvote #yegelection

Also if you challenge them on things they said....man do they run away quickly. (I don't agree on this person's stance on municipal political parties or bike lanes. They ran off before I could bring up other things!)

My local candidate for Better Edmonton (Timbit Party) just came to the door. Man are they backtracking on the party thing!

A road where half the paved surface is marked off for bike lanes using low concrete barriers and green flexiposts. On the boulevard strip next to the sidewalk is a large (3x3 foot?) sign that says: ROADS ARE FOR CARS! Elect Lana Palmer Ward Dene City Council
So *this* sign showed up on my neighbourhood, strategically placed next to the new bike lanes… 🙄
I mean, she’s right: roads are for cars, which is why we need bike lanes, but of course that’s not what she meant.
