A certified candidate is one whose nomination the City Clerk has accepted. The list shows the nomination date as August 20, 2026 and the campaign website saraehrhardt.ca. The City Clerk’s declaration of results for the October 24, 2022 general election lists Sara Ehrhardt first of 4 candidates for Toronto District School Board trustee in the school ward the Clerk numbers Ward 15, with 13,962 votes, marked elected. The 4 declared totals add up to 22,755 votes, so her share was 61.4 percent, calculated by voche.me from those figures. Her campaign website says she was elected as Toronto-Danforth’s public school trustee in 2022, and The Local and Beach Metro describe her as the area’s school board trustee, so voche.me ties the entry to her. School board wards changed for 2026. The Local reports that the Ontario government removed all trustee roles when it took over the board. Her campaign website says she kept serving residents, held forums and co-founded the Toronto Education Advocacy Network. Those are her own statements. The same website lists what she says she did as trustee: Ontario Line construction protections near Pape school, traffic calming near schools, keeping pools and programs open, and campaigning against cuts to public education. voche.me did not open board minutes to check any of these. The Local also reports that she is on leave from a policy advisor job at the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, citing her LinkedIn page, that she was mentored by Paula Fletcher, and that she has the endorsement of Peter Tabuns, the NDP member of the Ontario Legislature for Toronto-Danforth, of Progress Toronto and of the Toronto and York Region Labour Council. voche.me did not open those sources. TTCriders, a transit rider group, asked every Ward 14 candidate 18 questions about the TTC. Its page lists Sara Ehrhardt with an answer of Yes to all 18. That list is TTCriders’ record.

Every statement taken from her campaign website is written as the campaign’s own account. Ward context. The sitting Ward 14 councillor on the City’s Members of Council page is Paula Fletcher. The City’s candidate data lists her withdrawal on August 19, 2026, and The Local says she is not seeking re-election. The City’s list has 18 candidates for Ward 14: Maqsood Ahmad, Susan Chapelle, Michael Connor, Dennis Corcoran, Robb Dagenais, Peter De Marco, Sara Ehrhardt, George Fawcett, Mary Fragedakis, John Kladitis, Michael Mitchell, Caryma Sa’d, Dianne Saxe, Devyn Stackhouse, Jason Stevens, Christiane Tetreault, Maria Voutsinas and Denise Walcott. The City Clerk’s 2022 results for Ward 14 list five candidates: Paula Fletcher (20,305 votes, elected), Wali Abro (1,982), James Dyson (1,937), Denise Walcott (1,740) and John De Marco (1,469). A search for a 2026 debate or all-candidates meeting in the ward found none. Gaps. The Toronto District School Board’s own record of her role was not read: the board’s Ward 15 address returned its home page, with no trustee information, and no minutes were opened. The Local’s endorsement list and her employment history rest on The Local alone. The detailed policy pages linked from her plan page were not opened. Her social media accounts were not read. The questionnaire has not been sent.
