Notes on this record
How the lists were read, and what could not be.
- Carleton Place is a lower-tier town in Lanark County; the /local region is the whole town, so the full council and all candidates are included.

- Mayor Toby Randell (on the list as Edward Patrick 'Toby' Randell) and Deputy Mayor Andrew Tennant (Andrew Roy Tennant) were the only certified candidates for their offices and were declared elected by acclamation (Town notice of 2026-09-01: https://carletonplace.ca/2026-municipal-election-mayor-and-deputy-mayor-acclaimed). Their rows are incumbent-running with acclaimed: true.
