Session one will be from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., and session two goes from 7 to 8 p.m.
“What’s that ballot in my mailbox? Hold your pen,” said Runyan. “This is the most important choice you will make this decade. Before you vote, join us for cookies and doughnuts.”
The neutral, fun and informative videos will be on the four voting systems B.C. is considering, including the current, longstanding first-past-the-post system.
