[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 205486, member: 3907"] We have mail-in voting, advance polls, and then casting votes on election day. I was away during an election one year and used the mail-in process. If I recall correctly, it was pretty onerous. I think they should simplify it. I love the advance polls, and try to get to them every year. Since so many people don't know about them the crowds are pretty thin. Both the advance poll and the regular one are held in the auditorium at the local public school. You go in, show your little card and some ID to prove that you live in the riding. They cross your name off the list (or add you to it if you're not listed), and hand you a folded slip of paper. You go behind the little cardboard screen, vote for your local candidate, and then refold the ballot. Exactly as the scrutineer handed it to you. Then they open a little hatch in the vote collection box, you put your ballot in the slot and they close the hatch. It's been that way as long as I can remember... [/QUOTE]
