It's been nearly 24 hours since polls closed across Greater Victoria, and what an election night it was!
Voters delivered some major political shakeups, with Langford and Saanich seeing some of the biggest changes.
In Langford, former mayor Stew Young made a remarkable comeback, reclaiming the mayor's chair with more than 64% of the vote, four years after being voted out. The changes didn't stop there, with five new faces elected to council and just one incumbent returning.
Meanwhile, in Saanich, Rishi Sharma was elected mayor, defeating Zac de Vries, while the Save Our Saanich slate captured all six seats it contested. Voter turnout also jumped significantly, with more than 42% of eligible residents casting ballots.
Elsewhere, Marianne Alto secured another term as Victoria's mayor, while View Royal elected Volker Dammann and several other communities welcomed new leadership.
