“To date, the Surrey RCMP has only received third-party allegations of any wrongdoing in the election process,” said a statement from police on Wednesday.

“No individuals have come forward to the Surrey RCMP to say that they have been victimized in any matters related to the voting process.”

Surrey’s chief elections officer has forwarded 72 registration applications for mail-in ballots to RCMP as a result of some “noted irregularities” in the applications. Police are reviewing each application and contacting the registrants directly to ensure the application is legitimate and the irregularities are simply mistakes.
