Alberta Votes by Mail Surge | Canada News
Description
Elections Alberta just moved the special ballot deadline to September 25th—because they’re already fielding nearly 300,000 requests, way up from last election’s 59,000—and they’re racing to make sure every mail-in voter gets their ballot in time. Some folks got incomplete ballots, especially missing the separation question—don’t panic, Elections Alberta will fix it. Also cleared up: you don’t need a reason to get a special ballot, so just cross out that declaration line (they’re even sending updated ones). Counting starts immediately after polls close on October 19th, with results for the first question expected early next day. This is historic for Alberta and Canada—turnout’s projected at 80-85%, so expect a marathon of ballots, but officials are confident they’ve got this.
