Toronto mayoral byelection: Here's how to vote on June 26
City says 1,445 polling stations will be open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET
You're going to vote this time, right?
Just about one in three eligible Torontonians cast a ballot in last year's election, but a competitive and consequential mayoral byelection should bring more to the polls on Monday, June 26.
This year's advance vote — which ran from June 8-13 and saw a key improvement that allowed Torontonians to cast a ballot anywhere in the city — had a record-breaking turnout.
On election day, you will have to vote at a polling station in your neighbourhood.
That said, there will be way more stations to choose from, with 1,445 set to open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET.
You can use the City of Toronto's MyVote page to find the polling station closest to you.
