Here are municipal races on P.E.I. where no incumbents are running
Here are races on P.E.I. where there aren't incumbents running — or there may be up to 2 new candidates
Being elected or re-elected is never a guarantee for anyone, but voters can be sure of one thing on election night: there will be some new people elected on P.E.I.
Incumbent councillors in some wards have decided not to reoffer — the same goes for the mayor's race in Three Rivers — leaving the door open for a new person to be elected and try their hand at municipal politics.
Below are a list of the races across P.E.I.'s five biggest municipalities where there are no incumbents running.
The races are listed by jurisdiction, and the candidates are listed as bullet points in alphabetical order by first name.
