Every Common Sense candidate
2 candidates on the October 17, 2026 ballot. Each one links to a full profile with their own background, priorities and sources.
THE SHAPE OF THIS SLATE
What Common Sense is asking for
Common Sense is running 2 candidates across 2 of the three races on the ballot: 1 for Councillor, 1 for School Trustee.
With one candidate for Councillor and School Trustee, it is asking for a voice on those bodies rather than control of them.
Common Sense is not running a candidate for mayor, so it is contesting Councillor and School Trustee only.

Common Sense is not running for Mayor
No Common Sense candidate appears on the official City of Richmond 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 Richmond 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.

A source marked SAYS SO ITSELF is the party's own material. It proves what the party claims, not that the claim is true.
