The 2014 Vancouver municipal election took place on November 15, 2014, the same day as other municipalities and regional districts in British Columbia select their new municipal governments. As with previous elections, voters elected one mayor, 10 councillors, nine school board trustees, and seven park board commissioners. Voters also voted on whether to approve a capital budget.
Incumbent Mayor Gregor Robertson sought re-election with the Vision Vancouver Party,[1] which swept the 2011 election when it elected Robertson and all of its city council, park board and school board candidates. This election, Robertson was re-elected as mayor; however, there was a decrease across the board of Vision representation with six elected councillors, four elected school trustees, and only one elected park board commissioner. In total, ten Vision candidates were not elected, including five incumbent candidates: one councillor, three school trustees, and one park board commissioner.
The NPA came into the election as the second largest party in Vancouver, with two city councillors, two park board commissioners, and one school trustee. Their mayoral candidate is journalist Kirk LaPointe. LaPointe lost to Robertson in the mayor race by 10,086 votes, but the NPA team did gain grounds in the other fields by electing three councillors, four park board commissioners, and four school trustees.
The Vancouver Green Party ran a slate that sought to improve on their 2011 results, in which the first ever Green Party city councillor, Adriane Carr, was elected. Carr was re-elected as councillor and was actually the councillor elected with the most votes at 74,077. Additionally, two park commissioners and one school board trustee were elected, giving the Green Party of Vancouver the best results in the history of the Vancouver municipal elections.
The Coalition of Progressive Electors, which officially cut ties with former ally Vision Vancouver in 2012, lost its only elected official when school trustee Allan Wong switched from COPE to Vision Vancouver on December 8, 2013, ending decades of COPE representation in the city. COPE is contesting this election with its first mayoral candidate since 2002, community organizer and former NDP candidate Meena Wong. The party also ran a majority on all slates.[2] However, Wong placed a distant third in the mayoral race, and no COPE candidates were elected into office.
New Party Vancouver 1st ran a slate of candidates for all offices, including Olympic bronze medal winning swimmer Brent Hayden as a park board commissioner candidate, and two incumbent school board trustees Ken Denike, and Sophia Woo, after they were expelled from the NPA in June. However, no candidates from Vancouver 1st were elected into office.
Nominations for the 2014 vote opened on September 30, 2014 and closed on October 10, 2014.[3] Vancouver uses an at-large election system with the 10 candidates with most city-wide votes being elected, and similarly for other roles.[4]
Just before 8 pm on election day, voting hours were extended by 45 minutes at 4 locations that ran into ballot shortages earlier in the day, due to high voter turnout.[5]
