FREDERICTON (GNB) – Advance voting for the municipal council, district education council and regional health authority board elections for the Edmundston-Madawaska region will take place Saturday, May 15, and Monday, May 17. Polling stations will be open from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m.
Election day for this region is Tuesday, May 25, and electors will receive a new voter information card that will include the location of the polling station where they can vote.
“I strongly encourage all electors to consider voting on one of these two days of advance polls,” said Municipal Electoral Officer Kimberly Poffenroth. “If more New Brunswickers vote early, it decreases the size of lineups on election day.”
Electors can also vote by special ballot directly at the Edmundston returning office, which is open Monday to Saturday, up to and including election day.
Electors who are in isolation are encouraged to contact the returning office in Edmundston to arrange for the best method of voting available to them according to their situation.
Once polls in Edmundston close at 8 p.m. on election day, the reporting of results for the entire province will take place.
