    Those who sent their ballots in the mail by September 22nd are advised to call 709 637-1535 to confirm if their ballot has been received.

    Corner Brook city hall is offering a couple of choices for anyone who returned their Vote by Mail ballots through Canada Post. This is due to strike action being taken by CUPW (Canadian Union of Postal Workers). Those who sent their ballots in the mail by September 22nd are advised to call 709 637-1535 to confirm if their ballot has been received. If not, they can drop by City Hall to use a blank vote by mail kits. This will nullify the ballot you already mailed and that ballot will be destroyed upon receipt. Voters can also designate someone to vote on their behalf, or vote by proxy, by going to www.cornerbrookvotes.com. .The city’s second advanced poll day is tomorrow, September 27th from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., and election day is October 2.
