Municipal elections: Important information

Sophie Demers

West Quebec’s municipal elections are fast approaching. Residents will be casting their votes for mayors as well as their local councillor on November 2, and Pontiacers vote for their warden.

The current council work ceased meetings 30 days before the elections but will remain in office until the newly elected members of the council are sworn in.

Those unable to get to a voting station for health reasons can request that the electoral chair allow you to vote in your residence or health care facility. This request must be communicated to the electoral office by October 17. 

Important dates: 

• Election day: Sunday, November 2 from 10 am to 8 pm
• Advance voting day: Sunday, October 26 from noon to 8 pm
• Voting day at the Office of the Electoral Chair: Friday, October 24, from noon to 8 pm
