Ottawa Municipal Election, 2010

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.

The Ottawa municipal election was contested on October 25, 2010 to elect the mayor of Ottawa, Ottawa City Council and the Ottawa-Carleton Public and Catholic School Boards.

The election was held on the same date as elections in every other municipality in Ontario.

In Ottawa's 2006 municipal election, newcomer Larry O'Brien defeated former city councillor Alex Munter and then-incumbent Bob Chiarelli in an election largely based on the expansion of Ottawa's light rail transit system.

A Leger Marketing poll published by the Ottawa Sun on May 26, 2007 put O'Brien's approval ratings at 24%, and stated that if an election were held today, both he and Munter would be tied with 35% of the vote.
