Voters across Ontario will cast their ballots in municipal elections today.

Much of the campaign narrative has been dominated by Toronto, where 242 candidates are fighting for a spot on a sharply reduced 25-member council — down from the 47 seats.

But voters in London will also have a markedly different experience at the polls as the first-ever Canadian municipality to use ranked ballots in a local election.

All of Ontario’s cities and towns were given the option to use preferential voting for the first time this year, but only London took the province up on its offer.

Polls open at 10 a.m. and close at 8 p.m.

City officials say that we may not know all the results until Tuesday morning or early afternoon.
