How to Vote

The voting period runs October 13 to October 26, 2026. You can vote any time in that window – online or by phone. Election Day: Monday, October 26 is the last day to vote.

Madoc Township votes online or by phone – there are no paper ballots at a polling station. You can vote from your kitchen table, your phone, or with help from a neighbour.

How It Works

  1. Watch your mail. Every registered elector receives a Voter Information Letter with your unique PIN (personal identification number) and instructions.
  2. Vote online or by phone, any time during the voting period, using your PIN.
  3. Need help? Ask a family member, friend, or neighbour – or contact the township office. Nobody has to figure this out alone.

Before You Vote

  • Make sure you’re on the voters’ list. Contact the township office to check or update your information.
  • Your PIN is personal. Each elector votes their own ballot.
  • Technology troubles are not a reason to miss voting. The township and your neighbours can help.

Bring Your Neighbours

Voter turnout in Madoc Township was less than 750 total voters out of more than 2,000 residents last election – about 37%. That means two-thirds of our neighbours’ voices weren’t heard.

This election, you have real choices in every race. Whoever you support: vote, and bring your friends, family, and neighbours with you. Democracy works better when everyone shows up.
