Municipal elections were held in Essex County in Ontario on October 22, 2018 in conjunction with municipal elections across the province.
This page only includes the results for the towns of Essex County, and Pelee. While the City of Windsor (the largest population centre in the county by far) is nominally part of the county and counted in its population numbers, the city and its municipal government are a separate entity, and does not send any members to the County Council. The elections to Windsor's Mayor and City Council were held concurrently.
(NOTE: Elected candidates are shown in bold. An (X) indicates an incumbent candidate.)
Essex County Council
Essex County Council consists of the 7 mainland mayors of Essex County and their seven deputy mayors.[1]
