In-Person Voting Dates

For the 2022 municipal election, the City will have six days of in-person voting:

• Advanced Voting Days were held from Tuesday, Oct. 18 to Saturday, Oct. 22.
• Final Voting Day - Monday, Oct. 24 - 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Are you registered to vote?

Unsure if you are on the voter’s list? Find the Voting Place in your District on Voting Day (October 24 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.) and bring your identification showing your name and qualifying address. If you are not on the Voters List, or you need to update your information, you can make those changes at the Voting Place.

What do I need to vote?

The key to a quick and easy in person voting experience is to be on the Voters' List. If you are on the Voters' List you will receive your Voter Information Notice (VIN) a few weeks before Voting Day. Your VIN provides the location of your voting place and your unique Voter Identification Number that allows you to register and receive a PIN number in order to access internet voting.

For in person voting, simply bring your Voter Information Notice and appropriate ID to your voting place and you will be issued your ballot.

Advance Voting Days

Advanced voting days have passed. Electors were able to cast a ballot at one of six voting places throughout Kingston on Advance Voting Days, regardless of the district in which they live.

Voting Day - Monday, Oct. 24

Electors can cast their ballot at a voting place in their district on Voting Day between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m.
