Scott Hamilton leads the Cambridge, Ontario mayoral race in trader consensus at 69 percent implied probability ahead of the October 26 municipal election, driven by his record as a sitting city councillor, early nomination filing, and focus on housing intensification, property taxes, and managed growth without high-rises in historic cores. Local candidate forums and a CambridgeToday poll have highlighted his visibility among voters on encampments and transit priorities, while withdrawals by Brian Kennedy and Shahzada Khan narrowed the field. Incumbent Jan Liggett trails at 19 percent amid a competitive multi-candidate ballot that includes Ryan Bolender, with the remainder of listed contenders registering minimal shares consistent with limited recent polling or campaign momentum.
