MORE WAYS TO VOTE

Want to vote in the provincial election?

Here's a list of ways you can cast that ballot.

• You can vote in person on June 2 from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the voting location assigned to you based on your current residential address.

• You can vote at any of the advance voting locations in your electoral district. Advance voting locations are open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.

• You can vote at your returning office in person from the day after an election in your electoral district has been called, until 6 p.m. the day before election day.

• You can vote by mail, however, to do so you must complete a vote by mail application and provide a copy of at least one piece of government-issued ID. The deadline to apply to vote by mail is 6 p.m. on May 27. Elections Ontario must receive your completed voting kit by 6 p.m. on June 2 (election day) for it to be counted.

• You can vote at home if: you are unable to go to your voting location because of a disability; you are unable to read or write; you are unable to complete an application form; and/or you are someone who requires assistance. Under these circumstances, two election officials will bring a voting kit to your home to assist you in voting.

• You can vote if you are in hospital. As part of a three-day hospital program, election officials visiting participating hospitals during the general election will bring voting kits to the hospital to give temporarily hospitalized electors the opportunity to vote.

• Eligible students studying outside Ontario, members of the Canadian Forces and those away from their electoral district in the service of the government can vote by mail or add themselves to the Register of Absentee Voters.

Being on the Register of Absentee Voters means that you will automatically be sent a voting kit to vote by mail from May 5 to May 27.
