Because the Legislative Assembly of Alberta’s boundaries come with non-commercial terms, this page doesn’t say which riding Lamont County is in. The riding (a federal electoral district, which elects one MP) covering Lamont County is Lakeland, and Shannon Stubbs (Conservative Party of Canada) represents it in the House of Commons. Locally, Lamont County is run as a municipal district. In Alberta, councils aren’t on any open list we can use, so Lamont County’s mayor isn’t named.

When Lamont County votes
The last and next general elections at each level; a by-election can come in between.
| Election | Last | Next |
|---|---|---|
| Lamont County council | 20 October 2025 | 15 October 2029 |
| Legislative Assembly of Alberta | 29 May 2023 | – |
| House of Commons | 28 April 2025 | – |
The council elected on 20 October 2025 serves until 15 October 2029, when Lamont County council is chosen again. The Local Authorities Election Act fixes that date: the third Monday in October every four years. Provincially the last general election was on 29 May 2023, for the Legislative Assembly of Alberta; federally, on 28 April 2025. There are no 2025 counts here: Elections Canada’s terms bar their commercial reuse, so 2021 is the latest open result.

- Who holds each seat. Wikidata, edited by volunteers, is the source for each MP, and it can trail a change of seat by a little.
- Not on this page. Party control (most Canadian councils sit without parties, and the open lists record none) and band councils.
- Which riding. The 2021 Census homes of a place’s residents fix its ridings, and one is shown once it holds 5% of them.
- Council money. Alberta’s 2024 municipal financial returns, per resident with Statistics Canada’s 2025 population estimate.
- Election results. Two maps are in play: the 2013 ridings, on which 2019 and 2021 were counted, and the 2023 ridings, onto which Elections Canada transposed the 2021 vote poll by poll.
