Voters turned out in record numbers for advance polls.
Elections Canada said in a news release Tuesday that the four days of advance polling between Friday and Monday set a new record for turnout, with 7.3 million people casting ballots early.
That’s up 25 per cent from the 5.8 million people who took part in advance voting in the 2021 federal election. A breakdown of the estimated number of electors who voted at the advance polls for all electoral districts is being calculated and will soon be available on elections.ca.
The election is on Monday.
