What will be reported

Mayor

One candidate elected. Candidate votes, share of valid mayoral votes and reporting status will be shown.

City Council

Ten candidates elected at large. Council vote totals cannot be interpreted as mayor-style vote share because voters may select up to ten.

Park Board

Seven commissioners elected at large from the full candidate list.

School trustees

Nine trustees elected. Trustee totals will remain separate from mayor, council and Park Board contests.

Not a 2026 result — historical context only

How Vancouver voted in 2022

No 2026 ballots have been counted. For comparison only, here is the last completed Vancouver general election: on October 15, 2022, incumbent-to-be Ken Sim (ABC) was declared the winner of that 2022 mayoral race with 85,732 votes (49.99% of valid mayoral votes), ahead of 2022 runner-up Kennedy Stewart (49,593 votes, 28.92%) and 2022 third-place finisher Colleen Hardwick (16,769 votes, 9.78%). The City reported roughly 171,494 ballots cast citywide in that 2022 election. These 2022 figures — compiled from election-result tables citing City of Vancouver declarations — are four-year-old history, not a projection or forecast for the October 17, 2026 election.

How results will be verified

Election-night figures will be labelled preliminary until the Chief Election Officer's official declaration. Updates will record the time, number of voting places reporting, source link and whether recount or judicial-review information has been announced. Candidate multi-vote contests (Council and Park Board) will never be normalized as though each voter cast only one vote.
