根据最近的民意调查,哈利法克斯的市长选举面临选民极大的冷漠,近一半的选民不知道有任何候选人。 Halifax's mayoral election faces significant voter apathy, with nearly half of voters unaware of any candidates, according to a recent poll. 专家认为这与当地新闻业下降、公众参与减少有关。 Experts link this to declining local journalism, reducing public engagement. 这次选举是十多年来第一次没有现任市长迈克·萨维奇 (Mike Savage) 的选举,领跑者安迪·菲尔莫尔 (Andy Fillmore)、韦伊·梅森 (Waye Mason) 和帕姆·洛夫莱斯 (Pam Lovelace) 获胜,菲尔莫尔的支持率为 24%。 The election, the first without incumbent Mayor Mike Savage in over a decade, features frontrunners Andy Fillmore, Waye Mason, and Pam Lovelace, with Fillmore at 24% support. 值得注意的是,32%的被调查居民仍未作出决定,这表明政治兴趣不大。 Notably, 32% of surveyed residents remain undecided, indicating low political interest.
