Official results of the October 22 municipal election were released on October 24 by Judy Smith, Chief Returning Officer and Chatham-Kent Director of Municipal Governance.
There was no change in the results listed Monday night, which saw the percentage of voter turnout increase for the third consecutive election.
There were 34,722 ballots cast (45.44 per cent of eligible votes).
