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.The open Richmond, BC mayoral race on October 17 features a fragmented field after longtime incumbent Malcolm Brodie opted not to seek re-election. Kash Heed leads trader probabilities at 41.5% on the strength of a June poll showing 20% support drawn across federal party lines and his profile as a sitting councillor with prior provincial experience. Alexa Loo follows at 32.5%, backed by her Richmond Strong slate and council record. Henry Yao, Rob Howard, Sheldon Starrett (now running independently after parting with the Conservative Electors Association), and Mei Kang trail further behind amid 48% undecided voters in recent surveys. A mid-August debate highlighted divides on housing, public safety, and zoning, while nomination deadlines and slate formations in early September keep the contest fluid ahead of advance voting.
