Alberta election: How to cast a ballot in the 2015 provincial vote
Voting 101: Everything you need to know except who to vote for on Tuesday
Who can vote?
You must be a Canadian citizen, at least 18 years old and have lived in Alberta for at least six months before May 5.
Where to vote?
Elections Alberta has a map on its website that you can use to determine where to cast your ballot on May 5. You can enter your home address and the website will direct you to the closest polling station.
What do you need to vote?
You can check the Elections Alberta website to see if you are already registered to vote. If you are registered, you do not need ID to vote.
If your name is not on the list, you can still vote as long as you bring government-issued identification with your photo, such as a driver's licence.
If you do not have government-issued photo ID you can produce two pieces of identification — one with your name, and one with your name and address.
Identification documents can include a library card, utility bill, bank statement and credit ordebit card. The full list of authorized IDs can be found on the Elections Alberta website.
Should you not have ID from the authorized list you are still able to vote by having an elector, such as a family member, roommate or neighbour, who is on the voters list in your poll vouch for you.
How to vote?
Make an 'X' next to the candidate of your choice.
If you need help to vote, you can have a friend or election officer assist you. If you're in hospital, Elections Alberta can bring the ballot box to you
Polling places are open for 11 hours from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. If you're working during voting hours, your employer has to give you time to vote.
