Reviews

""" Electing a Mega-Mayor is a landmark book that should be read by anyone interested in Toronto city politics. It is the first book-length, survey-based case study of a municipal election in Canada, and the 2014 election just happened to be one of the most important elections in recent Toronto history."" --David Siegel, Emeritus Professor of Political Science, Brock University ""A robust study that contributes to the development of a more systematic understanding of municipal elections in Canada. The analysis, which provides a detailed and sophisticated look behind the scenes of a particularly distinct election, deftly captures some of the contemporary issues of municipal electoral contests."" --Sandra Breux, Professor and Director of the Laboratory on Local Elections, Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS)"
