According to the City of Richmond’s complete unofficial results for the October 17, 2026 municipal election, Gary Law received 15,759 votes, finishing first among City Council candidates and listed as one of eight elected councillors. All 51 voting places have been counted. The results remain subject to official confirmation.

The City’s results page was last updated at 11:05 p.m. on October 17, 2026. The ranking refers specifically to councillor candidates, not mayoral or school trustee candidates.

Thanking Residents, Volunteers and Supporters

Gary sincerely thanks Richmond residents, volunteers, campaign team members and supporters, along with everyone who participated in this election. The campaign has ended, but public service continues. He looks forward to listening to different voices, working collaboratively and serving the entire Richmond community, not only those who voted for him.

Continuing a Record of Public Service

Gary served as an RCMP officer from 1995 to 2015 and in the Canadian Army Reserve from 1989 to 2019, reaching the rank of Major. His ongoing community involvement includes safety education, youth mentorship and community activities in Richmond.

Five Priorities for Richmond

  • Community Safety
  • Roads & Transportation
  • Transparency & Accountability
  • Seniors, Families & Small Businesses
  • Livability & Inclusion

These are directions for future work, not completed municipal outcomes. After taking office, Gary will advocate for practical improvements by listening to residents and working with the relevant partners.

Unofficial Results and the Next Stage

The results still require formal confirmation by the City of Richmond. The title “Richmond City Councillor-elect” used on this website does not mean Gary has already been sworn into office.
