You don’t need a special reason to vote at advance voting stations, and Elections BC says COVID-19 safety protocols are in place at all locations.

In addition to bringing a valid ID with a name and home address and the Where to Vote card mailed to each registered voter, you may want to bring your own pencil to mark the ballot, and are also encouraged to wear a mask at the polling station.

You do not need to bring the Where to Vote card, but having it with you will speed things up.

If you would rather vote-by-mail, Elections BC is encouraging you to request a vote-by-mail package before October 17th. You can do so by calling 1-800-661-8683, or by visiting the Elections BC website.
