Voters can also bring their ID to their assigned polling station (based on address) and vote immediately, or they can be personally vouched for by another voter on the same list.

An elector will be removed from the voters list when Elections NB receives notification:
- of an elector's death from the Vital Statistics

If you want your name taken off the list after voting, you must request this in writing to Elections NB.
Who can access the list
Only election officials or candidates are allowed to see the list.
Candidates may obtain Lists of Electors during an election to be used for election purposes only. Between elections, Members of the Legislative Assembly and registered political parties get a copy of the list annually.
