Mobile polling

You can apply to vote at your domicile if your mobility is reduced or if you are unable to move about for health reasons.

If you are eligible for this service, election officers will come to your domicile so you can exercise your right to vote.

Your informal caregiver could also vote at the same time, if they are entered in the same polling subdivision as you on the list of electors. Contact your returning officer for more information.

Applying for mobile polling

1. Confirm your entry on the list of electors

Check the notice sent by your municipality to make sure your name is on the list of electors at your current address (that of your domicile, the centre, residence or establishment in which you reside).

You may also contact your returning officer to confirm your entry.

This verification is important, because you must be entered on the list of electors in order to vote. On election day, you will not be able to be entered on the list nor change your address.

2. Apply to your returning officer

You have two options to apply for mobile polling.

• Contact your returning officer
• Fill out the mobile polling registration form, available at your care centre, residence or health care facility, and return it by the deadline set by your municipality

If you need to enter your name on the list of electors or make a change of address, enclose with your application a photocopy of two documents containing the following information:

• Your name and your date of birth (birth certificate, health insurance card, passport, etc.)
• Your name and address (attestation by the care centre or residence where you live, telephone or electricity bill, etc.)

3. Note the day and time of your appointment

The returning officer will confirm when election officers shall come to your domicile, room or apartment so you can vote. Make a note in your agenda.

Voting by mail

Some municipalities offer voting by mail to non-domiciled electors, i.e., owners or co-owners of a building and occupants or co-occupants of a business establishment. If you are a non-domiciled elector in a municipality that offers this voting option, you can apply.

If you are eligible for this service, you will receive a voting by mail kit no later than 10 days before polling day. Ask your returning officer for more information.
