Registering to vote
Before you vote, you must be registered.
If you haven’t registered in advance, you can register at the voting place on election day. To register at the voting place, you will be required to show two pieces of identification containing your name and address. One of these pieces of identification must also contain your signature. These identification requirements apply to both resident electors and non-resident property electors.

Where to vote
The City is divided into voting divisions. See our vancouver.ca/ctyclerk/el...ivisions.pdf ( PDF 641 kb) for more information.
To vote on election day, you must go to the designated voting place in your voting division.
If your name is on the City's Voters List, you will receive a "Where to Vote" card in the mail around the end of October. This card will show your voting division and voting place address.
You can look up your designated voting place using our vanmapp2.vancouver.ca/vps2008...Main.cfm
