*In reference to the term domiciled, we offer the following clarifications:

The notion of “domicile” is defined in the Civil Code of Québec. Domicile may therefore be defined as the place that a person considers to be his principal dwelling, that he refers to for the exercise of his civil rights, and that he publicly indicates as his domicile. A person’s residence is the place where he or she habitually lives; where there is more than one residence, the one that is principal is taken into account in establishing domicile.

MOBILE VOTING

You can apply to vote at your domicile if your mobility is reduced or if you are unable to move about for health reasons.

If you are eligible for this service, election officers will come to your domicile so you can exercise your right to vote.

*Please note that there will be no mail-in voting in Potton in 2025.
