What’s good in Northumberland? What you need to know about voting early

With the federal election inching closer, many are expected to cast their ballots ahead of time.

There are a number of ways to vote before the April 28 election, including at advanced polling stations, at an elections office, or by mail.

Media advisor with Elections Canada Dugald Maudsley says if you want to go vote today, you can.

Maudsley adds there are a number of advanced polling dates available before April 28.

If for whatever reason you aren’t in your electoral district during advanced polling or on election day, there is also the option to mail your ballot in.

If you do this, Maudsley says you should start the process sooner than later.

To find your local election office or polling station, visit Elections Canada’s website.
