Of the remaining Councillors significant
analysis is needed
We believe these councillors are not reasonably deafatable
Wilkinson, Qadri*, Hume*, Chiarelli*, Desroches, Harder*, El-Chantiry*, Bloess
* = won with nearly 70% or more of vote in 2006
Potentially Beatable?
Monette*, McRae, Jellet*, Brooks

Kanata South=Aaron Helleman
Rideau-Rockliffe= Sheila Perry
Capital = Bob BrocklebankOrleans= Jennifer Robitaille
River= Nadia Willard
Rideau-Goulbourn= Bruce Webster

Note: There are other progressives
running
OO is choosing specific Wards to Target based on the likelihoodof victory
There are others running against councillors who wed like toreplace, but we need to strategically concentrate resources andassess vote-splitting and incumbent dominance
There are some wards we are targetting that have two or three
viable options, but the names we listed in red have been proven,community advocates for many years and are most likely to hava chance at victory
