With the official results posted soon before 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Mike Seguin has easily won the seat.
Seguin, a retired superintendent of education from the Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board, will finish out the term of Sue Desjarlais, who passed away earlier this year.
There were seven certified candidates in the byelection, with an eighth person having withdrawn.
The official results, according to the Town's official website, are as follows.
Mike Seguin - 1,197
Brad Krewench - 824
Robert Moore - 729
Kate Paddon - 216
Robbie Durling - 207
Tory McKay - 171
Brandon Meloche - 49
There were nine counted as "decline to vote".
Seguin will remain on council through November 2026, when Desjarlais' term expires.
The Town said 3,402 ballots were cast in the byelection, for a voter turnout of 12.46 per cent. There are 27,294 eligible voters in LaSalle.
The election was held online. Due to the recent labour disruption by Canada Post, LaSalle voters were required to collect their Voter Information Letters in person at LaSalle Civic Centre, so they could obtain the PIN number needed to vote.
