Voters in the 2020 Saskatoon civic election have spoken and incumbent Sarina Gersher has won Ward 8.

Neighbourhoods in the ward: Briarwood, Brighton, College Park, College Park East, Greystone Heights and Wildwood.

The ward also includes the Holmwood development area and the Hillcrest management area.
