01 / Introduction

## About Lara Honrado

Elections BC lists Lara Honrado as the BC NDP candidate for MLA in Vancouver-South Granville. The list shows nominations that Elections BC has accepted. On the copy stamped October 1, 2026 11:00:06 PM, she is the only candidate listed in the district. Nominations close at 1 p.m. on October 3, 2026.

In 2024, Brenda Bailey of the BC NDP won Vancouver-South Granville with 17,208 votes (64.31 percent). Conservative Aron Lageri received 6,678 votes (24.96 percent) and Green Adam Hawk 2,872 (10.73 percent). Lara Honrado's name does not appear in the 2024 statement of votes. The Canadian Press reported on September 23, 2026 that Bailey will not seek re-election.

The legislature's member data, read on 2026-10-01, holds no member named Honrado. It lists Brenda Bailey as the 43rd Parliament member for the district. voche.me found no 2026 speech or recorded vote by Lara Honrado in the legislature's indexes.

On 2026-10-01 the BC NDP's online list of 2026 candidates held 52 names, and none was for Vancouver-South Granville. The party's Vancouver-South Granville page does not name her. The website of 221A, a Vancouver organization that works with artists and designers, lists a board member with the same name. voche.me found no page that ties that person to this candidacy, so nothing from that page is used here. voche.me has not contacted the campaign.

voche.me found no campaign website, social media post, news report, interview or public statement from this candidate on 2026-10-01, so her background, her positions on every scored issue and her reasons for running are not on this page. The address larahonrado.bcndp.ca, the pattern the party uses for its candidates' pages, did not load: it sends the reader back to the same address in a loop. The BC NDP's online candidate list held 52 names on this date and did not include Vancouver-South Granville, and no party release found names her. The X account @LaraHonrado showed no readable posts to a direct read, and no page ties it to this candidacy, so nothing from it is used. A board biography on the 221A website and a Columbia University faculty page (HTTP 403) carry the same name. No page voche.me read ties that person to this candidacy, so her career, roles and any city record are left out until the campaign or the party confirms them. No portrait was found that the candidate or the party published. All-candidates meetings in the district, campaign finances and endorsements were not found on this date. Nominations close October 3, 2026, so other candidates may still be added. The questionnaire has not been sent.
