Toronto has experienced an unprecedented level of snowfall during this election and, as you know, we are all still digging out.

There are many seniors and people with mobility issues in the community and Elections Ontario officials have been hearing from elderly and other voters who are still trapped indoors due to age or ability level.

Well, now you can request a vote for the February 27 Ontario elections by home visit. Your request has to be made before February 26.

You can request to vote by home visit if you are unable to go to your local election office or voting location or require assistance to vote.

To request a home visit, contact your local election office at 145 Evans Avenue or call 833- 905-3499 or 1-888-668-8683 by 6 p.m. before February 26 to schedule a home visit.  You can also reach them by e-mail at info@elections.on.ca

If your request is approved, two election officials will bring a voting kit to your home to assist you in voting. You will need to show one piece of ID and complete the application form before receiving your ballot.

You will write the first and last name of the candidate of your choice on the write-in ballot. Then, you will fold your ballot and place the ballot in the envelopes as indicated before returning it to the election official.
