Projet Montreal’s Valérie Plante emerged victorious late Sunday night, winning a second term as mayor of Montreal in the Quebec municipal election.

Plante took an early lead straight out of the gate. By 9:30 p.m., her lead over main competitor, Ensemble Montréal’s Denis Coderre, had surpassed 11,000 votes — good enough for Global News to project her the winner.

Plante declared herself the night’s winner in a tweet around the same time, in which she thanked Montrealers.

She wasted no time making history again — also announcing that Dominique Ollivier would be the city’s executive committee chair, marking the first time two women lead the city.

Some of Plante’s campaign priorities included adding more social housing, fighting climate change and improving public security.
