Monday is election day in District 19 Borden-Kinkora. The byelection is being held to fill the seat in the legislature left vacant with the November resignation of MLA Jamie Fox. The polls are to be open from 9am to 7pm. If you aren’t sure where to vote on Monday, you can check the Voter Information Card you would have received in the mail or visit electionspei.ca
Elections PEI says 1,126 people voted in the advance polls, which is roughly 26 percent of the eligible voters in the district. If you are in the district and have a mai-in ballot, it must be returned to the office of the Chief Electoral Officer by noon Monday.
Obviously weather is a concern for Monday’s vote. Elections PEI CEO Tim Garrity says that in the event of inclement weather, electors in District 19 who haven’t voted yet should monitor the local media and Elections PEI social platforms on Monday morning for further information in case the weather affects the vote on Monday.
