Ways to Vote

There will be many ways to vote in B.C.’s next provincial general election.

Vote at any district electoral office

Once the election is called you will be able to vote at any district electoral office in the province. The election is scheduled to be called on Saturday, September 21, 2024. District electoral offices are being identified and will be published here when available.

Voting in the district electoral office will be available from when the election is called until 4 p.m. on Final Voting Day (October 19, 2024).

Vote by mail

Vote-by-mail package requests will be available from July 23, 2024, until 4 p.m. on Final Voting Day. The package will be mailed to you or you can pick it up at a district electoral office. The completed package must be returned to Elections BC before 8 p.m. (Pacific time) on Final Voting Day. More information on voting by mail in the next election will be published here when available.

Vote in advance

There will be six days of advance voting during B.C.’s next provincial election. Advance voting will be available October 10 – 13 and October 15 – 16, 2024 (advance voting will be closed Monday, October 14, for Thanksgiving). Advance voting places are open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. local time.

You don’t need a special reason to vote at advance voting – it’s an option for all eligible voters. If you haven’t registered before, or your information is out of date, you may register or update when you vote.

Not all advance voting places are open every day of the advance voting period. After an election is called, Elections BC publishes advance voting places and the dates they are open in community newspapers, on its website, and on Where to Vote cards sent to voters. Voters can vote at any advance voting place in the province, and all advance voting places are wheelchair accessible.

Vote on Final Voting Day

Final Voting Day for the 2024 Provincial General Election is scheduled for Saturday, October 19, 2024. Voting places will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. (Pacific time). Voting places are being confirmed and will be published here when available.

Vote anywhere

During the election, voting places will be listed on Elections BC’s website, on Where to Vote cards sent to registered voters, and published in community newspapers throughout B.C. You can also call Elections BC during an election to find out where to vote.

B.C. has a “vote anywhere” model, meaning you may vote at any voting place.
