Electronic Voting Opens in Wawa Municipal Election

Voting opens in Wawa's municipal election today.

The voting period runs from 10 o'clock this morning to 8 pm on the October 24th Election Day, and Municipal Clerk Cathy Cyr reminds voters should have received a Voter Instruction Letter on casting their ballot electronically.

Cyr says those who don't have a letter yet should contact the Municipality, to ensure they're on the electors list.

Cyr emphasizes that voting is only by phone or internet, though there are some options of assistance in-person, including at the Town Hall during regular hours - a schedule of other events can be found in the letter, or on the municipal website.

While current councillor Melanie Pilon has been acclaimed as mayor - with local school board trustees also acclaimed - voters are able to vote for up to four of the nine candidates running for the four remaining Council seats.

Interviews with each of the Wawa Council candidates can be found here.
