About Rakhee Kotecha
Rakhee Kotecha appears on the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates for Councillor in Ward 22 Scarborough-Agincourt. A certified candidate is one whose nomination the City Clerk has accepted. The list shows the nomination date as July 22, 2026 and the campaign website letsdobetterto.ca. The address matches the one she gave the City and the pages carry her name.
Her campaign website, the campaign’s own statement, says she was born and raised in Toronto, lives in Scarborough-Agincourt and works downtown. It says she joined her condominium board ten years ago, has helped manage multi-million-dollar budgets and kept maintenance-fee increases at 0% for five consecutive years. voche.me did not check those statements against the condominium’s records. The Local’s tracker says she is a real estate agent and, according to LinkedIn, a support manager at Canada Post, and that she cites a decade of condominium board experience. voche.me did not open her LinkedIn page, so her occupation is The Local’s account.
Her site lists five priority areas, each with a list of actions that begin “If elected, I will”: accountable and responsible City government, traffic and road safety, development and neighbourhood planning, public transit, and safe, clean and livable neighbourhoods. Among the actions it names are line-by-line review of City spending, a review of how councillor pay is set, support for term limits and for councillors living in the wards they represent, and a road-by-road approach to bike lanes that does not support dedicated lanes on major arterial roads. It also names advancing the Scarborough East Rapid Transit line and the eastward extension of Line 4 Sheppard.
The Local’s tracker, updated as of September 21, 2026, says her site gives reliable transit, safer streets, growing infrastructure and responsible public spending as priorities. TTCriders’ Ward 22 page records no response from her to its 18 transit questions.

What voche.me has checked
Evidence reviewed on October 4, 2026: the City of Toronto’s list of certified candidates, her campaign website (the home page holds her About, Priorities and Connect sections), The Local’s Ward 22 tracker, TTCriders’ Ward 22 page and The Green Line’s list of events for council candidates. Every statement taken from her campaign website is written as the campaign’s own account.
Ward context. The City's Members of Council page for Ward 22 Scarborough-Agincourt lists Councillor Nick Mantas. The City's list of certified candidates shows 10 candidates for the ward: Madhuri Azad, Bill Chan, Jackson Ho, Serge Khatchadourian, Rakhee Kotecha, Aaron Lal, Dan Lovell, Nick Mantas, Donny Morgan and Sindia Vijayarajan. The City Clerk's 2022 results for the ward list 6 candidates: Nick Mantas (8,228 votes, elected), Bill Wu (3,153), Antonios Mantas (1,841), Roland Lin (1,549), Serge Khatchadourian (1,383) and Anthony Internicola (677). Of the 10 candidates for 2026, only Nick Mantas and Serge Khatchadourian appear by name in those results. Build Canada's Ward 22 page records questionnaire answers from 2 of the 10 candidates, Madhuri Azad and Dan Lovell. TTCriders' Ward 22 page records answers to its 18 transit questions from 5 of the 10: Nick Mantas, Jackson Ho, Serge Khatchadourian, Dan Lovell and Donny Morgan. The Green Line, in an article dated September 24, 2026, lists a Ward 22 candidate debate on Thursday, October 8, 2026, from 7 to 9 p.m. at Agincourt Mall, Room 525. The listing names no attendees, so voche.me states none. The City's decisions site (secure.toronto.ca) returned HTTP 403 when voche.me requested it, so no recorded vote or Council decision is cited from it.
Gaps. Her website links no social media account that voche.me could find, and none was found by name search. Her occupation comes from The Local alone. She holds no City office, so no minutes search applies. She has not answered Build Canada’s questionnaire or TTCriders’ survey. The questionnaire has not been sent.
