2025 Edmonton Election - Election Day Reminders - Virtual Information Session

This virtual information session hosted by Edmonton Elections on October 3, 2025, provided important reminders and updates for the upcoming 2025 Edmonton municipal election. The session covered key topics including voting methods (advanced voting, election day voting, and special mail-in ballots), the impact of Canada Post service disruptions on voter information card distribution and special ballot delivery, and the role and rules for election scrutiners who observe voting and counting processes. It was emphasized that voting stations must remain neutral and nonpartisan, with strict guidelines on campaign materials and scrutineer conduct. Due to legislative changes, ballots will be counted by hand, which is expected to delay the release of unofficial results on election night, with official results due by October 24. The session also addressed logistical details for special ballot pickup and drop-off, and provided guidance for candidates regarding orientation and scrutineer participation. No procurement or contracting matters were discussed during this meeting.
