The 1952 municipal election was held October 15, 1952 to elect five aldermen to sit on Edmonton City Council and three trustees to sit on the separate school board (Charles Cummins, Robert Rae, and Harry Fowler were acclaimed to two-year terms on the public board). There was no election for mayor, as William Hawrelak was halfway through his two-year term. The electorate also decided four plebiscite questions. There were ten aldermen on city council, but five of the positions were already filled: Harold Tanner, Abe Miller, Rupert Clare, Violet Field, and Al Larson were all elected to two-year terms in 1951 and were still in office. There were seven trustees on the public school board, but four of the positions were already filled: William Webber, Mary Butterworth, J W K Shortreed, and John Thorogood had been acclaimed to two-year terms in 1951ṣ and were still in office. The same was true on the separate board, where Andre Dechene, William Sereda, Catherine McGrath, and Amby Lenon were continuing. This was the first election to be held the third Wednesday in October instead of the first Wednesday in November, as had previously been the rule. It was also the first election in which there were more than one hundred thousand eligible voters. ==Voter turnout== There were 12800 ballots cast out of 101521 eligible voters, for a voter turnout of 12.6%. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edmonton municipal election, 1952」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
