With just a few hours left before polls close, voters in Mississauga are set to choose a new mayor and Ward 5 councillor in the city's byelection Monday.
Some 24,000 voters have already taken advantage of advance voting, which took place on May 24-25 and June 1-2, the City of Mississauga says.
Just over 21 per cent of eligible voters cast a ballot in the city's last municipal election in 2022, down from 27 per cent in the 2018 election.
Whoever wins the mayoral race will become only the third person to hold the post since 1978.
