Yesterday, voters in the 444 municipalities in Ontario elected their new councils and school boards from a slate of more than 6,300 candidates running province-wide.
In the Grey and Simcoe County area, voters elected new mayors, deputy mayors and councillors with results from the election trickling in from about 8:15 p.m. and on. Both Clearview and Collingwood extended the voting period to 9 p.m. after delays with the online voting system, while results in Barrie, which used a combination of telephone and online voting, came in one fell swoop shortly before 9:30 p.m.
