Registering

What is the last date on which someone can register to run for mayor? That should be mentioned. Esn (talk) 17:27, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Is Howard Gomberg related to Tooker?

Poll in late September 2010

I don't see the results of a recent poll that had Ford at 29% and Smitherman at 23%, and also reported that if Ford and Smitherman went head-to-head, Smitherman was ahead by 3%.99.248.19.210 (talk) 19:35, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Consistency

In some poll results the percentage allocated to each candidate excludes the undecided vote, while other polling results add up to 100% only if the undecided vote is included. The chart should be consistent so the reader can more easily look at any changing trends, and since some polls don't have the undecided vote percentage, I suggest that the chart should be formatted such that the results excluding the undecided vote are listed (the undecided vote percentage would still remain as a separate column where applicable).

Infobox

This is a great infobox except that it tells readers incorrectly that the three leading candidates represented political parties. They did not. Whatever their provincial or federal polticial affiliation or leanings may be, we do not have any significant political parties at the municipal level. I am moving the infobox here so it can be revised because I cannot figure out how to remove the parties. Ground Zero | t 15:02, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
