  "account": "Toronto has seen the highest advance voting turnout in municipal elections since 2010, with over 222,000 people casting their ballots early, the city announced. This represents a significant increase compared to the 2023 mayoral byelection, where only around 130,000 advance votes were recorded, and the 2022 municipal election, with nearly 116,000 advance votes. The marked rise in advance voting participation aligns with the broader trend of higher engagement in recent Toronion municipal elections.",
