1921 Calgary municipal election
The 1921 Calgary municipal election was held on December 15, 1921 to elect six aldermen to sit on Calgary City Council. Additionally a commissioner, four members for the public school board and three members for the separate school board. The Mayor Samuel Hunter Adams was acclaimed. 

There were twelve aldermen on city council, but six of the positions were already filled: Fred J. White, John Sidney Arnold, John Hugill, Charles Stevenson, Walter Little and Alexander McTaggart, were all elected to two-year terms in 1920 and were still in office.

A number of plebiscites were held, all requiring a two-thirds majority to pass. The only successful plebiscite reduced the number of commissioners election from three including the mayor, to two including the major.

The election was held under the Single Transferable Voting/Proportional Representation (STV/PR) with the term for candidates being two years.

A number of women were refused ballots during the 1921 election, the Calgary Daily Herald estimated a total of 1,000 to 1,500 women were refused votes. Women were refused who were not on the voting list, and many women assumed they would be on the voting list due to being registered for the 1920 Calgary municipal election.
