Back to EpisodesEdmonton Mayoral Race: Money vs. Networks
Description
In Edmontons 2025 mayoral race, campaign spending varied greatly, with Andrew Knack securing the most votes on a modest budget, while Tim Cartmells heavy spending yielded fewer votes. Despite Cartmells groups additional funds, Knacks cost per vote was significantly lower, demonstrating that larger budgets dont guarantee better results. Experts suggest that initial broad advertising keeps costs low, but targeted efforts later drive up the price. Low voter turnout further highlights the importance of personal networks and volunteers in city elections.
