2012 Halifax municipal election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Downtown Halifax

The 2012 Halifax Regional Municipality municipal election was held on October 20, 2012 to elect councillors and a mayor to a four-year term on the Halifax Regional Council, the governing body of the Halifax Regional Municipality. This election was one of many across Nova Scotia as part of the 2012 Nova Scotia municipal elections.

In December 2011 it was decided by the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board that the Halifax Regional Council be reduced in size from 23 districts to 16 districts,[1] consequently forcing almost every district boundary in the HRM to be redrawn.[2] Some incumbent councillors were forced to run against each other because of the redrawn districts.[3]
