The 1955 municipal election was held October 19, 1955, to elect five aldermen to sit on Edmonton City Council (William Hawrelak was acclaimed for a third term as mayor) and six trustees to sit on the public school board (Amby Lenon, Andre Dechene, Orest Demco, and Catherine McGrath were acclaimed to two-year terms on the separate board). The electorate also decided ten plebiscite questions. There were ten aldermen on city council, but five of the positions were already filled: Edwin Clarke, Frederick John Mitchell, Ethel Wilson, Laurette Douglas, and Giffard Main were all elected to two-year terms in 1954 and were still in office. There were seven trustees on the public school board, but one of the positions were already filled, as Donald Bowen was elected to a two-year term in 1954 and was still in office. William Roberts and Rex Stevenson had also been elected to two-year terms in 1954, but had resigned; accordingly, John Thorogood and Herbert Turner were elected to one-year terms. On the separate board, there were four vacancies, as James O'Hara, Adrian Crowe, and John Kane were continuing. ==Voter turnout== There were 14248 ballots cast out of 126990 eligible voters, for a voter turnout of 11.2%. 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, 1955」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
