When Two Hills votes
The last and next general elections at each level; a by-election can come in between.
| Election | Last | Next |
|---|---|---|
| Two Hills 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 Two Hills council is chosen again. The Local Authorities Election Act sets the day: the third Monday in October every four years. The last general elections came on 29 May 2023 for the Legislative Assembly of Alberta and on 28 April 2025 for Parliament. No open copy of the 2025 counts exists, and Elections Canada’s own terms rule out commercial reuse, so 2021 is the last vote shown.
