The 1904 Calgary municipal election was held on December 12, 1904, to elect a Mayor and nine Aldermen to sit on the twenty-first Calgary City Council from January 2, 1905, to January 2, 1906.[1][2]
Nominations closed on December 5, 1904.[3] Incumbent Mayor Silas Alexander Ramsay did not contest the election and instead contested an Aldermanic position in Ward 1. This resulted in incumbent Ward 1 Aldermen John Emerson defeating his opponents and incumbent Aldermen William Henry Cushing and James Abel Hornby to become the 15th Mayor of Calgary.
The election was held under multiple non-transferable vote where each elector was able to cast a ballot for the mayor and up to three ballots for separate councillors within a voter's designated ward.
William Leigh Bernard declined the office of Aldermen and his seat was declared unclaimed on January 2, 1905.[5] James Abel Hornby was elected in by-election as Aldermen for Ward 1 on January 18, 1905.[6]
