It will be a cold trek to the polls today with municipal by-elections being held in Sussex and Hampton to fill vacant seats on the two town councils.
The vacancy in Hampton is because Gary Crossman was elected as the M-L-A for the Conservatives.
In Sussex, Mark Wright has left to join the RCMP.
The four candidates in Hampton are Chris Rendell, who unsuccessfully tried to run for the NDP provincially, Mark Reid, who owns an accounting firm, forester Todd Beach and businessman Robert Signoretti.
In Sussex, the candidates are former town councillor Kevin Black, construction worker Melody McKnight, Carl McLellen, a carpenter, former RCMP officer Graham Milner and life coach Matt White.
