Tune in to @ctvnewscalgary.bsky.social CTV News Calgary at 11:00pm tonight -- for LIVE municipal election results, reaction and analysis, with anchor Tara Nelson! #yyc #yycelection #yyccc #abpoli

Lines are moving slow in a lot of polling places for the #yycElection because there are new forms to fill out, so give yourself some extra time when you head to the ballot.

I'll be posting this a lot in the coming days. To any candidate in the #Calgary municipal election -- if you are in a so called "party" you will NOT get my vote. Nobody asked for #calgarycitycouncil parties so if you are part of one, I have disqualified you. #yyc #yycelection #yyccc
