From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The City of Vancouver held municipal elections on November 16, 1996. Canadian citizens who were over 18 years of age at the time of the vote, and had been a resident of Vancouver for the previous 30 days and a resident of B.C. for the previous six months, were able to vote for candidates in four races that were presented on one ballot. In addition, Canadian citizen non-resident property owners were eligible to vote.
The ballot elects one mayor, 10 Councillors, 9 School Board Trustees and 7 Park Board Commissioners. Each elector may vote for as many candidates as there are open seats (e.g., an elector may vote for 10 or fewer Councillors).
