Notes on this record
How the lists were read, and what could not be.
- Ridings covering the municipality (share of its land area on a sample grid, not population — Represent census subdivision outline vs Élections Québec's 2026 riding map): Rimouski 99.7%.
- Rimouski: Yohann St-Pierre (PQ) elected with 14,189 votes, 43.35%, ahead of Julia Brillant-Ruest (ÉCF-CAQ, 17.71%) by 8,393 votes (25.64 points). No outgoing MNA ran in this riding (per Élections Québec's candidate file); the source does not say who held the seat before the 2026 map or whether they retired.
- Results are validated: Source flags isResultatsFinaux=true for all 127 ridings (official results after the recensement des votes), last updated 2026-10-08T10:13:52,000-04:00. Élections Québec states the Rapport des résultats officiels du scrutin prevails over web content; judicial recounts, if any, are not reflected here.
- Riding map: Élections Québec's 2026 map (https://donnees.electionsquebec.qc.ca/autres/geojson/circ_2026_sanseau.json, 127 ridings). Represent (represent.opennorth.ca) carries only the 2017 Quebec map (used in 2018 and 2022); its 2017 riding at this centre is Rimouski.
- Municipal council from Ville de Rimouski's Conseil municipal page (https://rimouski.ca/ville/democratie/conseil-municipal, retrieved 2026-10-09): Mayor + 11 district councillors. Last municipal general election 2025-11-02 (the city's page https://rimouski.ca/ville/democratie/election-municipale: 'La dernière élection municipale générale a eu lieu le dimanche 2 novembre 2025'). No municipal party printed by the city (party null). Official @rimouski.ca emails kept; phone numbers not copied. Record-level election field left as the 2026 provincial election.
