Municipal election in Canada
Municipal election in Canada
The 1903 municipal election was held December 14, 1903 for the purpose of electing a mayor and three aldermen to sit on the Edmonton Town Council, as well as five public school trustees and five separate school trustees. There were six aldermanic positions on the council at the time, but three of them were already filled: Arthur Cushing, Daniel Fraser, and James Ross had been elected for two-year terms in 1902, and were still in office.
The 1903 election was the last to occur while Edmonton was still a town; the following year, it was incorporated as a city.
