Voter Eligibility

 

How do I know if I'm eligible to vote?

 

You are eligible to vote in a British Columbia local election as a resident elector if you:

 

• are a Canadian citizen;

• are 18 years of age or more on general voting day;

• have lived in British Columbia for at least six months before you register to vote; and

• have lived in the municipality, regional district or school district for 30 days or more before you register to vote.

 

You may be eligible to vote in a British Columbia local election as a non-resident property elector if you:

 

• are a Canadian citizen;

• are 18 years of age or more on general voting day;

• have lived in British Columbia for at least six months before you register to vote; and

• are not otherwise disqualified from voting in an election.
