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.
  • Sitting council (Mayor + 8) from City of Miramichi — Members of Council (https://www.miramichi.org/members-of-council), retrieved 2026-10-09. The page does not give wards for councillors, so seat is null for them.
  • Last NB local general election verified as 2026-05-11 (Elections NB 'Local Government Elections May 11, 2026' mailer) — NOT 2025-05-12; the 2025 date in the work brief was wrong.
  • Provincial MLA added from the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick Members Listing (https://www.legnb.ca/en/members/current, retrieved 2026-10-09); riding 'Miramichi East' chosen by a Represent boundary point lookup at the /local centre (the only current-name NB district returned). legnb.ca robots.txt sets crawl-delay 10200, so only the one listing page was fetched.
