The writ is set to drop May 4 for the June 2 provincial election and if you plan to vote, now is a good time to confirm, update or add your information to the voters' list.
Elections Ontario maintains a list of Ontario residents eligible to vote in provincial elections called the Permanent Register of Electors for Ontario also known as the voters' list.
To be eligible, you must be 18 years of age or older, a Canadian citizen and a resident of Ontario. You can use eRegistration to confirm, update or add your information to the voters list if you:
- change your address;
- change your name; or
- become eligible to vote.
Elections Ontario maintains the voters' list on an ongoing basis using information from federal, provincial and municipal sources, or through direct updates from voters.
If you are on the voters' list when an election is called in your electoral district, Elections Ontario will mail you a voter information card with information about when and where to vote. You will need to provide one piece of ID with your name and current residential address when you vote. Find examples of accepted ID needed to confirm, update or add your information to the voters' list.
You can also complete an application form and return it to Elections Ontario by:
- email to [email protected] with an attached copy of your ID; or
- mail with a photocopy of your ID.
Please note that applications sent by mail or email may require additional time to process.
