Surrey city councillor LINDA ANNIS "First" To Declare
Surrey councillor LINDA ANNIS has come out far in front of any other confirmed candidates for the 2026 civic elections by announcing she will run for Surrey Mayor on October 2025.
ANNIS in 2022 ran on a slate of candidates called Surrey First. ANNIS was the only member of that slate to be elected.
Since then ANNIS has been at odds with current Surrey mayor BRENDA LOCKE and believes she will bring a different direction to Surrey council.
Mayor LOCKE has not indicated if she will seek another term. Meanwhile former Surrey mayor DOUG MCCALLUM has been publicly stating for months he will return as a candidate in 2026 for Mayor of Surrey.
