Voting under the Special Voting Rules
The Special Voting Rules allow voting by special ballot, including by mail or in person at a local Elections Canada office. If electors are away from their electoral districts, they can also register to vote with Elections Canada in Ottawa. Official voting results under the Special Voting Rules are broken down into two groups.
Under Group 1, we report results of votes cast by the following categories of electors:
- Canadian electors temporarily residing outside Canada
- Canadian Forces electors
- incarcerated electors
Under Group 2, we report results of votes cast by the following categories of electors:
- Canadian residents who are away from their electoral districts
- Canadian residents voting by special ballot in their own electoral districts
Rounding of figures
Because the figures given in the tables in this report were rounded, there may be some discrepancies in the totals.
Number of polling stations
The number of polling stations reported is lower than the number put in place because some results were combined to protect the secrecy of the vote in polls where few ballots were cast.
