Elections Newfoundland and Labrador would like to remind electors from the District of Topsail that there is still time to be added to the voters list for the upcoming by-election on March 16, 2010. The deadline to be added to the list prior to polling day is Saturday, March 13.

To be added to the list or to ensure that one's information on the list is correct, electors may check with the Topsail Returning Officer, or with Elections Newfoundland and Labrador. Any corrections or changes can then be made before polling day.

If an elector is not on the list on polling day, he or she may still register at the polling station. Proper identification will be required showing the elector's name, current address, and signature. The elector will also have to take a proper oath or affirmation.

For further information, please contact Elections Newfoundland and Labrador at 729-0712 or 1-877-729-7987 (toll-free).
