Why do I only have until September 15, 2025, to register with Elections Alberta?
Under the Local Authorities Election Act, Elections Alberta has to provide the Town of Legal a Permanent Elections Register for the 2025 Municipal Election.
To ensure your name is included, you must register with Elections Alberta no later than September 15, 2025. Voters registered by this date will be included in the list provided to the Town ahead of Advance Voting opportunities.
How do I know if I am registered or not?
If you receive a voting card from Elections Alberta during a Provincial election, you are likely on the Permanent Electors Register.
To confirm, view your registered information and provide any updates if required, please visit Voterlink by September 15, 2025.
I previously voted in past elections, am I registered to vote?
If you have previously voted in past elections, you may already be on the register. To confirm your registered information is up-to-date, please visit Voterlink by September 15, 2025.
What if I didn't register to vote before September 15 and still want to vote?
Non-registered voters will be required to complete registration at a voting station prior to receiving a ballot.

What ID is accepted?
Voters can use any piece of identification authorized under the Local Authorities Election Act or authorized by the Chief Electoral Officer under the Election Act. See ID Requirements for more details.
Why would I need someone to vouch for me?
If you come to a voting station and do not have valid ID that confirms your current address, you can have another voter vouch for you to validate your address. For full details on eligibility and requirements, please see the Vouching tab.
Can I vote if I am temporarily living in Legal?
No. If you are only living in Legal temporarily (example: just for the school year) and you normally live in another community, you should plan to return home to vote or contact your home municipality for your voting options in your place of permanent residence.
