Bring ID!

Identification is needed when you go to vote. Remember to bring one piece of ID showing your name and qualifying North Bay address. Your Voter Information Card cannot be used as a piece of ID.

If you do not have an acceptable ID and are not on the voters’ list, you will be asked to return with your ID in order to receive a ballot.

Weather will be a little iffy, but don't let that stop you. Mainly cloudy today with a 60 per cent chance of flurries changing to 60 per cent chance of rain showers in the morning. High 6. 

Polling stations close at 8 p.m. That's the same time coverage begins on BayToday.ca and Country 600 CKAT.
