[Back to Delta First ](https://voche.me/bc/delta-2026/parties/delta-first) [**4**Candidates](https://voche.me/bc/delta-2026/parties/delta-first/candidates) [**3/4**Issues with published policy](https://voche.me/bc/delta-2026/parties/delta-first/platform) [**19**Sources on file](https://voche.me/bc/delta-2026/parties/delta-first/money) **7**Questions answered THE SHAPE OF THIS SLATE ## What Delta First is asking for Delta First is running 4 candidates across 2 of the three races on the ballot: 1 for Mayor, 3 for Councillor. Its mayoral candidate is Melissa Granum. 1 OF 1 SEAT CONTESTED ## Mayor [**Melissa Granum**](https://voche.me/bc/delta-2026/candidates/melissa-granum) 3 OF 6 SEATS CONTESTED ## Councillor [**Alexander Fischer**](https://voche.me/bc/delta-2026/candidates/alexander-fischer) [**Jat Puri**](https://voche.me/bc/delta-2026/candidates/jat-puri) [**Tammy Hansen**](https://voche.me/bc/delta-2026/candidates/tammy-hansen) ### Delta First is not running for School Trustee No Delta First candidate appears on the official City of Delta candidate list for this race. A blank here records that, and nothing more. ### How a candidate is linked to a party Only the official City of Delta candidate list decides which party a candidate belongs to on this site. A party's own list of candidates is not enough on its own, and a candidate running with no party is never attached to one. ## Sources A source marked SAYS SO ITSELF is the party's own material. It proves what the party claims, not that the claim is true. 1.
