The 2026 Richmond, BC mayoral election is currently scheduled to be held on October 17, 2026. This market will resolve according to the candidate who becomes the next mayor of Richmond as a result of this election. Temporary, interim, or placeholder mayors appointed before the election will not be considered. If the result of this election isn't known by June 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other". The primary resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting; however, if there is any ambiguity in the results, this market will resolve according to official information from Richmond.Richmond's open mayoral race for the October 17, 2026 election features a crowded field of eight declared candidates after long-serving Mayor Malcolm Brodie opted not to run. Market pricing shows Rob Howard and Kash Heed as the closest contenders, followed by Alexa Loo, with the remainder trailing sharply. Howard's Richmond Forward slate and Heed's independent bid draw from overlapping voter bases, while Loo's Richmond Strong team and others like Mei Kang and Henry Yao compete for distinct segments. A large pool of undecided voters, limited recent polling, and the absence of a dominant frontrunner sustain the tight positioning. Scheduled debates, slate expansions, and voter outreach in the final weeks ahead of advance voting could shift support and widen gaps among the leaders.
