The County of Essex is hosting a free information session on April 8, 2026, for Tecumseh, Ontario, residents interested in running for local office. This meeting will explain the rules and how to sign up to run for the municipal council or school board in the October 2026 election.
The session will take place from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the County of Essex Administration Building. People can choose to attend the event in person or join the meeting from home using a Zoom video call.
Speakers from the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing and a consulting group called Clerks on Call will lead the session. They will provide information on campaign rules and the legal steps required to become a candidate.
The County of Essex says that registration is required for this event because there is limited seating at the administration building. The session is free for all residents who want to learn more about the local election process.
