Notes on this record
How the lists were read, and what could not be.
- Federal and provincial representatives only, from a Represent point lookup at the city centre. The municipal council and any candidates are not yet captured.
- Municipal council added 2026-10-09 from https://www.halifax.ca/city-hall/districts-councillors. Dartmouth is a community inside Halifax Regional Municipality, not a municipality: listed are the HRM Mayor plus the councillors for the three districts named for Dartmouth (3 Dartmouth South-Woodside-Eastern Passage, 5 Dartmouth Centre — which contains the /local centre point — and 6 Dartmouth East-Burnside). District 4 (Cole Harbour-Preston-Westphal) may touch the former city's eastern edge; not included. Full council is on the ca-halifax record.
- Provincial member added 2026-10-09 from the Nova Scotia Legislature member list: the riding containing the /local centre point is Dartmouth South (point-in-boundary via Represent's current boundary set; the person is sourced from the legislature).
- Last municipal general election 2024-10-19 (Nova Scotia's province-wide municipal election day; date confirmed in HRM's 2024 Municipal Election project review, https://www.halifax.ca/sites/default/files/documents/city-hall/elections/2024_municipalelections_projectreviewandnextelectiondocument_8.5x11-web.pdf). The next is October 2028.
