03How do I cast my vote?
Centre Wellington is using internet and telephone voting.
Your mailed Voter Information Letter contains your PIN and instructions. Follow those instructions to access the voting system. You will also need the date of birth recorded on your voter account.
Keep your PIN private. If you need assistance, contact Township election officials or visit a Voter Help Centre.

Visit the Municipal Office at 1 MacDonald Square, Elora, Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m., to register or update your information.
Bring acceptable identification showing your name and qualifying address. Check that your mailing address and date of birth are correct.
05What if my Voter Information Letter is missing?
If your letter has not arrived by the start of voting, or you have lost it, contact Township election officials promptly.
Officials can check your registration and explain the identification and replacement-PIN process. Do not use a letter addressed to someone else.

07How do I confirm my ward?

If you live in Centre Wellington, you vote in the ward where you live. Owning another property in a different ward does not let you choose that ward instead.
If you qualify as a non-resident elector or need help confirming your ward, contact Township election officials.

Election officials can help voters at in-person Voter Help Centres. The Township’s accessibility plan also provides for service animals, support persons, and election information in alternative formats.
