Despite the three way race, Holzman won all but two of the city's wards. She was particularly strong in the city's west end, with her best ward being Ward 1 (renamed Britannia-Richmond in 1995), which she had represented part of on council from 1982 to 1991. O'Neill won the remaining two wards, both in the city's south end. Her best ward was Ward 3 (renamed Southgate in 1995), which she had represented on council. Kehoe did not win any wards, but was strongest in the central part of the city, and came within 90 votes of winning Ward 5 (renamed Bruyère-Strathcona in 1995).
