Nunatsiaq News

IQALUIT — The following are the results of Nunavut’s Dec. 13 municipal elections.

Only people newly elected or acclaimed are listed, along with the number of votes they received.

Not all Nunavut municipalities held elections. In some communities, only vacant council seats were contested, and some the mayor’s position was not up for elected.

Cambridge Bay

Cambridge Bay was a special case in this year’s mayoral elections. The hamlet’s two candidates finished in a dead heat with 139 votes each.

Using a special section of the local authorities elections act, Keith Peterson was selected as mayor by a random draw. His rival, Joe Ohokannoak, has called for a re-count.
