The election in Elliot Lake was significantly impacted by the Algo Centre Mall roof collapse of 2012, and the release of the judicial inquiry's report into the incident just 12 days before the election.[4] Incumbent mayor Rick Hamilton and two incumbent city councillors who ran against him for the mayoralty were all defeated by political newcomer Dan Marchisella,[5] and only one seat on city council was won by an incumbent councillor.[6] Marchisella is also the first mayor in the city's history to have been born in the city.[6]
