Absolutely!  It is the democratic right of every Canadian Citizen to vote and to have your voice heard about issues that are important to you.

As long as you are eligible to vote, you can vote using any of the voting methods available. We do respectfully ask that if possible, you cast your vote on one of the scheduled Advance Polling Days, or by using the Internet Voting Method.

Of course you can.  There are Election Official positions that do not require you to use a computer - just look at the job descriptions for each position and apply for a position you will be comfortable with.

Unfortunately, in order to work in any of the Advance Poll positions, you need to be available for the whole three days that advance polling is being offered - October 13,14 and 15.

If you are not available for those days, you can still be involved by applying to work in one of the positions on Election Day, or even as On-Call.

Job descriptions and rates of pay are located a little further up this page.  Alternatively you can view them by going to www.ckelection.com.

Absolutely - we'd be happy to help you.  You are welcome to email us at ckelection@chatham-kent.ca or you can call us at 311.
