Tuesday was the last day to register as a candidate for Winnipeg's civic election. There are eight people running for the position of mayor, and 52 candidates vying for 15 council positions.

Amidst summer holidays and activities, you might not have the City of Winnipeg election on your radar. The election is Oct. 24. The deadline to register as a candidate is Sept. 18.
