On the morning of Tuesday, October 27, 2026, the Town of LaSalle identified a discrepancy in the number of votes that were revealed on Monday night after the Municipal and School Board Election. A review found that votes cast at the Voter Help Centres were counted twice in the results initially released. The Certified Results correct this discrepancy and do not change who the Town originally reported as elected. Media Release - Certified Results - 2026 LaSalle Municipal and School Board Election
