Elections BC says all registered voters will be sent a ‘Where to Vote’ card in the mail prior to advance voting.

“Your Where to Vote card lists your assigned voting place on Final Voting Day and advance voting options in your electoral district,” Elections BC said. “You can use your Where to Vote card as one of two pieces of voter ID, but you don’t need it to vote.”

“Voters have an assigned voting place on Final Voting Day, but you can vote at another voting place if it’s more convenient to you.”

Voters are required to be Canadian citizens at least 18-years-old on election day, and have been a resident of B.C. since April 23, 2026. More information about identification requirements can be found here.

A list of candidates in Kamloops Centre, Kamloops-North Thompson, Fraser-Nicola, Cariboo-Chilcotin and Salmon Arm-Shuswap can be found here.
