It\u0027s the second mayoral election for the city since October
Ex-police chief Mark Saunders and former deputy mayor Ana Bailão have pitched themselves as the best-placed candidates to challenge Chow’s lead in the polls.
Whoever is elected Monday will inherit a city budget with a nearly $1-billion pandemic-related shortfall, driven partly by reduced transit revenue and increased shelter costs. The next mayor will also inherit largely untested “strong mayor” powers, allowing them to pass budgets with just one-third council support, veto bylaws and unilaterally shape the city’s top-level administration. Several leading candidates have vowed not to use those powers to overrule council.Polls are open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. at 1,445 voting locations across the city.
