For deputy mayor, Jack Contin was elected with 2,817 of 5,076 votes cast.

A majority of candidates for the mayoral, deputy mayoral, and council races were gathered at Cellarman’s Pub – as well as many supporters – all of whom were heard cheering as the results were revealed.

“I didn’t get around to as many doors as I wanted,” admitted Gordon of the 8,061 households and 14,292 eligible voters with Midland each candidate could have reached.
