Windsor-Essex Warden Race

Tom Bain is looking for a third term as warden for Essex County.

Besides his current four-year term, he also served for a year in 1993. This time, he's running against Leamington Mayor John Paterson and Kingsville Mayor Nelson Santos.

"I'll outline the program I'd like to follow for the next four years," says Bain on how he plans to approach the election. "I really just try to let them see myself in a positive light and why I'm the right person for the job.

Fourteen voting members will decide Windsor-Essex's next warden. It takes eight votes to win.
