Voter cards are being delivered to mailboxes and Elections BC is reminding voters to bring those cards on voting day.

“Bringing your Where to Vote card with you will make the voting process faster and easier,” said chief electoral officer, Keith Archer.

Two types of cards are being mailed out:

Registered voters will receive a card that includes the dates, times and locations for advance voting in their district. Each voter’s card also shows their assigned voting place for General Voting Day, May 9.

Elections BC will also be distributing Where to Vote cards to addresses with no registered voters. These cards will inform eligible voters of the voting opportunities available to them and that they can register when they vote.

Advance polls open April 29 and run that day and April 30 as well as May 3 to May 6.

A complete listing of advance voting places is available on Elections BC’s website at elections.bc.ca/2017-provincial-general-election/where-to-vote.

Voters can also use Elections BC’s Where to Vote application to find voting places close to them and in their electoral district. The application can be found on Elections BC’s website at elections.bc.ca/wtv.

Eligible voters can vote at any voting place in B.C.
