- Edmonton municipal election, 1940
The 1940 municipal election was held November 13, 1940 to elect a mayor and seven aldermen to sit on Edmonton City Council. Elections for school trustees were not held, as candidates for both the public and separate boards were acclaimed.
There were ten aldermen on city council, but three of the positions were already filled: George Campbell, Edward Brown, and Dan Knott were all elected to two year terms in 1939 and were still in office. Frederick Casselman and Douglas Grout had also been elected to two year terms in 1939, but had resigned; accordingly, Charles Gariepy and Blair Paterson were elected to one year terms.
