2022 Municipal and School Board Elections

 

 

The next general municipal election will be held on Wednesday, October 26, 2022.

Elections in the resort communities of Victoria Beach, Dunnottar and Winnipeg Beach will be held on Friday, July 22, 2022.

 

Voting Places must be open from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. As long as you enter the voting place before 8:00 p.m. on Election Day, and are a qualified voter of the municipality, you may vote.

 

Every municipality is required to hold one advance voting opportunity. Notice must be given of the date and location of advance voting in the notice of election. Advance voting must be open from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Any eligible voter may vote in advance, provided they expect to be unable to attend the voting place on Election Day.

 

For more information on the advance voting opportunity in your municipality, contact your municipality’s Senior Election Official or local municipal office.

Every municipality is required to offer sealed envelope voting (formerly known as "vote by mail"). Any eligible voter may vote by sealed envelope, provided they expect to be unable to attend the voting place on Election Day.

 

A voter may apply in person or in writing (mail or fax) before Election Day to receive a ballot. Ensure you apply early enough in advance to be able to return your sealed envelope ballot by 8:00 p.m. on Election Day. A family member may also be able to pick up the ballot on your behalf.

 

For more information on the sealed envelope voting opportunity in your municipality, contact your municipality’s Senior Election Official or local municipal office.

 

Every municipality is required to establish a mobile voting station to serve voters at health care facilities in the municipality, including hospitals, personal care homes and developmental centres. A mobile voting station may be set up on Election Day, or before Election Day as an advance voting opportunity.

 

For more information on the mobile voting opportunity in your municipality, contact your municipality’s Senior Election Official or local municipal office. You may also wish to speak with the administrator of the health care facility, if you reside at the facility, for more information.
