The 2025 Edmonton election occurred on October 20, 2025.
I covered the election tracking who's running, made video content, blog posts, and endorsed a slate of candidates.
Overall, I ruined Tim Cartmell's day.
Pretty good election.
Reading on the election
-
Why I'm endorsing two candidates in ward Ipiihkoohkanipiaohtsi
· Both Jon Morgan and Funke Olokude bring great things to the table. I dig into why I haven't specifically endorsed one over the other.
-
Michael Walters, former two-term Councillor, intends to run for Mayor
· In 2021, Michael Walters was often called the heir-apparent, but opted not to run. Now he intends to rejoin the race.
-
Sohi returns to the mayor's chair, Timbits filling up for the May 13th party launch
· After losing the election in Edmonton-Southeast, Amarjeet Sohi has retaken the mayoral seat. Meanwhile, Tim Cartmell looks to fill out 13 candidates before launching his party mid-May.
-
Rapping Mayoral candidates and a Jennifer Rice pile-on
· Jennifer Rice's poor performance this term has made her the most vulnerable incumbent in the city. We're seeing a race shape up to take advantage of that, and unseat her. Plus a mayoral candidate turns to rap to get his message out.
-
Amarjeet Sohi out as mayor, the first Timbit arrives
· In a wild mayoral upset, Sohi is now the federal Liberal candidate in Edmonton-Southeast. Will Andrew Knack take his place? And who's the first Timbit?
