Correction - October 24, 2014: This map was edited from a previous version that mislocated the address of Ward 32 candidate James Sears. Sears lives in Ward 32.



More than one-third of candidates for Toronto city council don't live in the ward they're contesting. According to a Star analysis, 130 of 357 candidates (excluding mayoral contenders) are trying to get elected in wards they don’t call home. For 41 candidates, the race they are running is more than five kilometres away.

To run for council, you or your spouse need to own or rent land somewhere within the city’s limits. There are no rules stating a candidate must live in their chosen ward.
