1980_Edmonton_municipal_election
The 1980 municipal election was held October 15, 1980 to elect a mayor and twelve aldermen to sit on Edmonton City Council, nine trustees to sit on the public school board, and seven trustees to sit on the separate school board.
This was the first election in which there were two aldermen elected from each of the six wards, instead of three aldermen elected from each of the four wards, as had previously been the case.
Mayor was elected through first past the post.
Councillors and school trustees were elected through block voting.
There were 72,939 ballots cast out of 341,102 eligible voters, for a voter turnout of 21.4%.
