How to Vote Early in Milton's 2026 Municipal Election

With Milton's 2026 municipal election approaching, residents who want to beat the election-day lineups can vote early. Advance voting runs across several days in mid-October, and electors can use any of the town's voting locations regardless of where they live.

What Happened

The Town of Milton has set advance voting days ahead of the October 26 election. Residents can cast a ballot at any of five advance voting sites across town, with hours running into the evening on most days.

To vote, residents should bring their voter notification card along with identification showing their name and address. Anyone who did not receive a notification card can still vote by showing identification with their name and address.

Key Details

• Election day: Monday, October 26, 2026.

• Advance voting: Monday, October 12 (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) and Tuesday to Thursday, October 13 to 15 (10 a.m. to 8 p.m.).

• Voters may use any of the five advance locations regardless of where they live:

• Beaty Branch Library (945 Fourth Line); Milton Leisure Centre (1100 Main Street East); Milton Sports Centre (605 Santa Maria Boulevard); Nassagaweya Tennis Centre and Community Hall (9267 Guelph Line); Sherwood Community Centre (6355 Main Street West).

• Eligibility: Canadian citizens at least 18 years old who live in Milton, own or rent property in Milton, or are the spouse of a Milton property owner or tenant.

• Bring your voter notification card plus ID showing your name and address (ID alone with name and address works if you have no card).

• Full details are on the town's election website at milton.ca.

Community Impact

Advance voting gives residents more flexibility around work, school and family schedules, and the open-location rule means voters can choose whichever site is most convenient. Taking a few minutes to confirm ID requirements ahead of time can make the process quicker.

Local elections decide the mayor, council and school board representatives who shape day-to-day life in Milton, from roads and recreation to planning and services.
