Note
A spelling choice rather than a different word: American usage keeps a single l before the -or, while councillor, with the doubled l, is the British and Commonwealth form. All of the word's uses carry over unchanged, including its use as the title of someone elected to a local council. The plural follows the same pattern, councilors, so a text written in American spelling should keep the single l throughout.
