Edmonton municipal election: How and where to vote

Edmontonians head to the polls Monday to vote in the municipal election, choosing a new mayor and voting in two referendums.

Polls open at 8 a.m. and close at 8 p.m.

Where do I vote?

Eligible Edmontonian can cast a ballot at their designated polling station.

What do I need to bring?

When you go to vote, remember to bring government-issued ID, your voter statement, and a mask.

Valid government ID includes anything with your name and current address, including driver’s licenses, government cheques or stubs, income/property tax assessment notice, or a statement of government benefits.

For anyone without those documents, you can vote with a signed attestation form or have someone vouch for you.

What am I voting on?

When you receive your ballot, you’ll be asked to choose a councillor for your ward and a new mayor.

On top of that, you’ll also find two referendum questions from the provincial government: one on equalization and one on daylight saving time.

The first question asks whether you believe equalization payments should be removed from the Constitution and the second asks if Alberta should move to daylight saving time permanently.

Albertans seem split on those two topics, according to the latest poll from Leger.
