Elections BC’s mail-out of referendum voting packages is complete so if you haven’t received yours it’s time to request one. But you only have until midnight on Nov. 23 to do so.
There are three ways to request a package: online, by phone and in person.
Online, head anytime to www.elections.bc.ca/ovr
By phone, call 1-800-661-8683 (Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.)
Voters can also head to a Service BC Centre (there’s one at 5785 Duncan St. in Duncan) or a Referendum Service Office (also at 5785 Duncan St.). The Centre is open 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Elections BC spokesperson Rebecca Penz said to date, Canada Post’s rotating strikes have not materially impacted referendum timing but Elections BC will keep monitoring the situation.
The votes must be received by Elections BC by 4:30 p.m. on Nov. 30.
Don’t want to put it in the mail? Take it to the Service BC Centre (address above.)
