Election Day is a week away, but those eager to cast their ballots in the provincial election have a few options to get their votes in early.
In addition to voting by mail, there are a number of advance polls open in northwestern Ontario.
Those who have registered to vote will receive a voter information card in the mail, which includes information about when and where to vote. People can still vote without a voter information card, but must bring a piece of ID that includes their name and address.
Eligible voters must be at least 18 or older, a Canadian citizen, and a resident of Ontario.
Here’s a list of places people can vote early in the region. More information can be found on the Elections Ontario website.
