What voche.me has checked
Evidence reviewed on October 4, 2026: the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates, the candidate’s Know Your Vote T.O. page, the City Clerk’s 2022 declaration of results, the TDSB’s 2018 to 2022 trustee list, the TDSB’s trustee wards page and the board and City records listed below. Name, office and ward are as the City prints them. The Know Your Vote T.O. page lists no website or social account, and its four questions are marked “Awaiting submission”.
TDSB wards changed for 2026. Ward 8 covers City wards 15 and 16, which the City’s list names Don Valley West and Don Valley East. The TDSB’s 2018 to 2022 trustee list names the old Ward 11 as Don Valley West and the old Ward 14 as Don Valley East. The City Clerk’s 2022 results show Rachel Chernos Lin elected in the old Ward 11 and Farzana Rajwani elected in the old Ward 14. A by-election is a vote held to fill a vacant seat between regular elections. Trustees voted in December 2024 to hold one for the vacant old Ward 11 seat, the City Clerk declared Stacey Cline elected on March 3, 2025, and the TDSB says she took office on March 18, 2025. A TDSB notice dated November 28, 2024 names Farzana Rajwani as trustee for the old Ward 14, Don Valley East. Those seats belong to the old wards and are not treated as seats in the new Ward 8. The TDSB’s trustee wards page says that during provincial supervision the powers of trustees rest with the provincially appointed Supervisor, that trustees have no official duties with the board at this time, and that this also applies to trustees elected in October 2026. The TDSB’s news item of March 18, 2025 says the board’s current term ends on November 14, 2026.
Gaps. The City’s list gives no campaign website. Searches for the name with Toronto, TDSB and the ward returned the City’s list, candidate directories and the Know Your Vote T.O. page, and none held the candidate’s own statements. No biography, platform or experience is written because no source supports one. The questionnaire has not been sent.
