Voting safely during COVID-19

BC is fighting COVID-19 to keep people healthy and safe during a global pandemic — that includes on Election Day.

Voting in this election will be a little different than in the past; but it won’t be that different than what you do now at the grocery store or the pharmacy. There’ll be physical distancing at polling places to keep people apart, capacity limits, extra cleaning, personal protective equipment for polls workers, and plenty of hand sanitizer, among other protections.

There will also be opportunities for you to vote in advance, just like a record number of British Columbians did in 2017. We’ll share more information about dates and locations when it’s available from Elections BC.

If you want to vote by mail, you can request a mail-in ballot package through the Elections BC website, or by calling Voter Services at 1-800-661-8683.
