Nearly a month out from the municipal elections in Alberta, the Town of Bonnyville has its first winner with sitting Mayor Elisa Brosseau returning to her post.
Brosseau was acclaimed as no one else put their name forward for the top spot.
Of the council hopefuls, there are currently eight running for just six seats.
All six sitting councillors, Kayla Blanchette, Byron Johnson, Phil Kushnir, Neil Langridge, Brian McEvoy and David Sharun have put their names forward hoping to win their seats back.
Two new challengers have put their names forward hoping to get one of the eight seats. Christine (Tina) Michaud and Caitlyn Bush are also on the ballot for the Oct. 20 election.
Advanced voting will be located at council chambers in town hall on Oct. 9, 11, 15 and 18, with hours expected to be released soon.
Election day voting will take place at the Bonnyville Seniors Drop In Centre from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
