About the Candidate Information
Aurora Public Library is pleased to provide this page as a community resource for the 2026 Municipal Election.
The information below has been submitted directly by candidates through a standardized online form. Responses are published as provided by the candidates and are intended to help residents learn about the individuals seeking elected office and make informed decisions at the ballot box.
The Library does not endorse, support, or oppose any candidate, political party, position, or viewpoint. Candidate participation is voluntary, and the inclusion of a candidate profile does not imply endorsement by Aurora Public Library.
Information will be displayed in accordance with the Library's commitment to fairness, neutrality, and equal access to election information. Candidates are grouped by the office they are seeking as well as by Ward if applicable. Within each category, they are then listed alphabetically by surname.
If you were unable to attend, the full recording of the 2026 All-Candidates Meeting is available on Aurora Public Library - YouTube
