VOTE VOTE VOTE Leaf Rapids Election 2006

Further to our conversation , and your request for information, following are the requirements to vote as a Resident Voter for the upcoming October 25, 2006 Leaf Rapids election:

Resident Voters

In order to be eligible to vote, a person must be:
· a Canadian citizen;
· at least 18 years of age on election day; and
· a resident of the local authority for at least six months on Election Day.

The following rules apply to determine the residency of a person:
1. A person is a resident of the place where he/she has his/her ordinary residence, and to which he/she intends to return when away from it.
2. A person may be a resident of only one place at a time.
3. A person does not change residence until he/she has a new residence.

If an individual's name is not on the Leaf Rapids Voter List they will be required to sign Form 22 - Oath Of The Voter and produce identification as below:

· 1 piece if it is an official federal, provincial or municipal document showing person’s photograph, name & address (examples: Driver’s license, Firearm Registration Card)
OR
· 2 pieces of other documents (examples: medical card, tax statement, assessment statement, stamped envelope received by individual showing name and address)

As I indicated an Election Information Station should be set up at the voting station. The Oath can be taken there to avoid waiting in line at the Voting Station. The Voting Stations are divided alphabetically by Voter surnames.
