  • The Structure of Municipal Voting in Vancouver
    The Structure of Municipal Voting in Vancouver David A. Armstrong II Western University Jack Lucas University of Calgary May 31, 2021 Abstract In this paper, we offer a new interpretation of the structure of municipal electoral competition in Vancouver, focusing on the city's high-profile municipal election in 2018. Using novel \cast vote records" { a dataset containing each of the 176,450 ballots cast in the city's municipal election { we use a Bayesian multidimensional scaling procedure to estimate the location of every 2018 candidate and voter in Van- couver in a shared two-dimensional political space. We then match observed votes from the cast vote records to survey responses in the Canadian Municipal Election Study (CMES), a large election survey undertaken in Vancouver in 2018, using 96 CMES variables to interpret our two measured dimensions of electoral competi- tion. We find evidence of a single primary dimension of competition, structured by left-right ideology, along with a secondary dimension dividing establishment from upstart parties of the right. Our paper supplies a new interpretation of Vancouver's electoral landscape, clarifies our understanding of the role of left-right ideology in Canadian municipal political competition, and demonstrates the promise of cast vote records for research on municipal elections and voting. Keywords: Vancouver politics; municipal elections; municipal politics; measurement; multidimensional scaling; Bayesian estimation 1 1 Introduction Political scientists on the hunt for generalization often ignore the odd and idiosyncratic { and in the world of Canadian city politics, there are few places more idiosyncratic than Vancouver. In most cities, voters choose their preferred councillor from among a handful of competitors; in Vancouver, they select up to ten councillors from a cacophonous list of forty or fifty names.

  • Improving Visible-Minority Representation in Local Governments in Metro Vancouver
    Electing a Diverse-City: Improving visible-minority representation in local governments in Metro Vancouver by Munir-Khalid Dossa B.A. (Policy Studies), Kwantlen Polytechnic University, 2019 Project Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Public Policy in the School of Public Policy Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences © Munir-Khalid Dossa 2021 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Spring 2021 Copyright in this work rests with the author. Please ensure that any reproduction or re-use is done in accordance with the relevant national copyright legislation. Declaration of Committee Name: Munir-Khalid Dossa Degree: Master of Public Policy Thesis title: Electing a Diverse-City: Improving visible- minority representation in local governments in Metro Vancouver Committee: Chair: Dominique Gross Professor, Public Policy Josh Gordon Supervisor Assistant Professor, Public Policy John Richards Examiner Professor, Public Policy ii Ethics Statement iii Abstract Visible minorities make up roughly half of the population in Metro Vancouver. Despite this, their representation in municipal governments is very low, in partial contrast to provincial and federal levels of government, where representation is higher, although still not proportionate. This study documents this underrepresentation at the municipal level, investigates the sources of that underrepresentation and examines policy options to address it. In five case studies, the research looks at the impact of at-large versus ward electoral systems, varying rates of voter turnout, and the influence of incumbency on electoral chances of visible minority candidates. Drawing on these case studies and six subject matter interviews, the study then evaluates four policy options in the Metro Vancouver context: changing to a ward system for elections, education campaigns, civic engagement opportunities and the status quo.

  • 2018 Municipal Election Renter Report Card Working Group
    2018 Municipal Election Renter Report Card Working Group Notes: The Renter’s Report Card and Voting Guide is authorized by the Vancouver Tenants Union, registered ​ sponsor under LEFCA, 604-780-5705 Methodology: Four key questions were developed by the Renter’s Report Card Working Group based upon suggestions from the Steering Committee and Policy Committee of the Vancouver Tenants Union. Specifically these were drawn from our 50 recommendations to the BC Rental Housing Taskforce and the City we Need platform which our membership endorsed. These four questions were sent out to the following parties and independent mayoral candidates on September 10th: (COPE, Greens, One City, Stewart Kennedy, ProVancouver, Shauna Sylvester, NPA, Vision Vancouver, Coalition Vancouver, Vision Vancouver and Yes Vancouver.) They were asked to respond to the questions with a deadline of September 13th, 2018. On September 15th, 2018, 31 tenants from apartment buildings across Vancouver participated in the Renters Report Card grading exercise. Participants came from diverse neighborhoods such as Kitsilano, the Downtown Eastside, the West End, Mount Pleasant, Arbutus, Hastings-Sunrise, Grandview-Woodland and Marpole. Participants were randomly divided into four corners of the room. In each corner they were read one of four key questions and the politicians response in alphabetical order. Participants were asked to grade the responses using a simple A/B/C/D grading scheme with F reserved for non-respondents. Those grades were given a numerical equivalent and then averaged to create an average score for each politician response. Note: We asked for the responses to these questions to be by Party or Independent Candidate.
