Ajax, Oshawa, Clarington and Scugog have new mayors with Shaun Collier, former mayor of Ajax and Dan Carter of Oshawa not contesting this time, while Adrian Foster of Clarington and Wilma Wotten of Scugog have been replaced.
Ajax, Whitby, Clarington and Uxbridge have declared final poll results whereas Pickering, Oshawa, Scugog and Brock are yet to announce the official results.
