How do I vote?
(**Remember- You can register to vote on E-Day at your polling station!**)
To avoid delays, Elections Canada strongly encourages you to make sure that your name appears on the voter’s list for the election before Election Day. If you are not registered on the voter’s list, you can register:
• during the 28-day revision period, which occurs between the 33rd day and the
6th day at 6:00pm before election day;
• at the advance polling station; or
• at the polling station on election day.
- Remember to present satisfactory proof of your identity and residence; or
- make a sworn statement of your identity and residence, and be accompanied by another elector already registered in the same polling division. That person vouches for you by making a sworn statement, and cannot vouch for anyone else.
Finding your polling station
If you are not registered on the voters list, or you have not received a voter information card from Elections Canada showing the address of your polling station, you can get the address by telephoning the returning office in St. Paul’s at 1-800-463-6868. You could also check the address on a voter information card received by another elector in your household.
Registering at an advance poll
To have your name added to the voter’s list at an advance poll, you will have to present satisfactory proof of your identity and residence. You register with the deputy returning officer- who completes a registration certificate that you sign. You can then vote.
Acceptable identification is one valid official document showing your name, address and signature (such as a driver’s licence); or two valid official documents, one showing your name and address (such as a telephone or electricity bill), and one showing your name and signature (such as a health card or a library card).
Registering on election day
To have your name added to the voters list on election day at your polling station, you must either:
• present satisfactory proof of your identity and residence; or
• make a sworn statement of your identity and residence, and be accompanied by another elector already registered in the same polling division. That person vouches for you by making a sworn statement, and cannot vouch for anyone else.
Acceptable identification is the same for registering on election day as it is for registering at an advance poll. You register with the deputy returning officer or a registration officer at the polling station, who completes a registration certificate that you sign. You can then vote.
