Sullivan is split between 3 federal ridings, chiefly Cloverdale—Langley City and Fleetwood—Port Kells
Local decisions for Sullivan are made by Surrey’s council; neighbourhoods don’t have their own. 42% of Sullivan residents have Tamara Jansen as their MP; most of the rest have Gurbux Saini. In the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, Sullivan is shared by 3 ridings (Surrey-Panorama, Surrey-Serpentine River and Surrey-Newton). Open data stops at the October 2024 count, so the current MLA isn’t confirmed here.

Sullivan is governed by Surrey, with British Columbia and Ottawa.
The city council decides local matters.
Regional parks, waste, rural areas’ services.
Schools, health care, highways, municipal law.

When Sullivan votes
The last and next general elections at each level; a by-election can come in between.
| Election | Last | Next |
|---|---|---|
| Surrey council | 17 October 2026 | 19 October 2030 |
| Legislative Assembly of British Columbia | 19 October 2024 | – |
| House of Commons | 28 April 2025 | – |
Provincially the last general election was on 19 October 2024, for the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia; federally, on 28 April 2025. The council elected on 17 October 2026 serves until 19 October 2030, when Surrey council is chosen again. The Local Government Act fixes that date: the third Saturday in October every four years. Counts from April 2025 can’t appear here, since Elections Canada allows only non-commercial reuse of them.

- Not on this page. Band councils, municipal budgets and party control are left out; most councils sit without parties anyway.
- Election results. The 2019 and 2021 figures are Elections Canada’s official counts on the ridings drawn in 2013; the “today’s boundaries” figures are its transposition of the 2021 vote onto the 2023 ridings, an estimate built from polling divisions.
- Which riding. The 2021 Census homes of a place’s residents fix its ridings, and one is shown once it holds 5% of them.
- Who holds each seat. A member who resigned or switched parties last week may still show here: the names are Wikidata’s.
