[This post is now out of date - please refer to the FINAL Results post.]
Voting papers are being delivered now, so it's time to post feedback received so far. I'll continue to update this list as candidates contact me.
Response stats:
- 61 Mayoral/Council candidates contacted (sorry – I didn't have time to do all the Community Boards too). Of all candidates polled:
- 80% have responded (or in some cases their ticket leader has responded on their behalf)
- 36% are Enthusiastic advocates of cycling initiatives
- 39% are Generally in favour
- 5% are Ambivalent
- None are Not in favour or want cyclists off the road!
I'm delighted that so many candidates are in favour – this augurs well for a more rapid implementation of Council's cycling strategies.
Note that there are still quite a number of candidates who haven't contacted me. Don't assume at this stage they are cycle-unfriendly. Some I've contacted late and won't yet have had a chance to respond. I'll progressively update this list as more responses come in. I just wanted to get this published now for people who have to vote early.
Candidates – if I or your leader has misrepresented you, or you otherwise want to comment, please leave a post so I can update you next time.
Shore voters – if like me you want to see a more people-friendly city, where lifestyle, the environment, and community health predominate, support those candidates who support cyclists!
