Woop Knack and Rutherford (I'm in Anirniq) won! That undecided vote really must've broken hard for Knack. I know the late polling was looking a little concerning but given the huge pool of undecided voters, I remained optimistic and it's nice to see I wasn't disappointed! #yeg #yegvotes

What Taproot knows about Edmonton’s 2025 election so far is that voter turnout was just more than 30%, the lowest since 2007, that some voters waited until after 10pm to cast their ballots, and that as of 1:20am on Oct. 21, about 54,000 votes had come through. #yeg #yegvotes

Alberta’s municipal elections should be local.

Instead, we’re seeing UCP-backed slates like “Better Calgary” + “Better Edmonton” try to hijack democracy.

Vote for people, not parties.

Hey Edmonton!

If you’re still undecided about a good mayoral candidate, I highly recommend my good friend and UCP supporter: Tim Cartmell!

You can trust Timmy because he is on record saying he is not corrupt! And if you have to say it . . . 🤷‍♀️

The fact that donors who support my UCP also support Tim Cartmell and Better Edmonton tells you exactly why I wanted municipal political parties in our province and who these parties really work for!

Tim Cartmell for Edmonton mayor!

Thanks to @taprootedmonton.ca's candidates survey, I discovered that the ward candidate I'd planned to vote for did NOT see the climate crisis as an integral lens re policy & decision-making; instead, they said it 'cost too much' 😑
