It's Election Day In Ontario!

It’s Election Day in Ontario.

Polling stations will be open across the province from 9am-9pm.

Your voting information, including when and where to vote, can be on your voter information card, which you should have received in the mail if you are registered to vote.

If a voter doesn’t get an information card, they can still cast a ballot by bringing one piece of ID that has their name and current residential address.

  1. When you arrive at a voting location, you will be asked to show your ID to an election official who will check if you are registered on the voters list. If you are not on the list, the election official will add you to the voters list and ask you to sign a declaration.
  2. The election official will then issue you a ballot.
  3. You will go behind a voting screen to mark your ballot. To vote for your chosen candidate, mark an X in the circle beside their name, and return the completed ballot to the box.
  4. In a voting location with technology, you will place your marked ballot in to the secrecy folder and take it to an election official operating a tabulator. In a voting location without technology, you will fold your ballot and deposit it yourself into a ballot box.

Polls will remain open until 9 tonight and by law, employers are required to provide employees with three consecutive hours to vote during polling hours on Election Day.
