What is the Voters' List?

The Voters' List is a list of eligible electors in the Township of South Stormont that is compiled by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC). When revised with your assistance, it helps to aid the Township in their preparation and execution of Voting Day. Being on the Voters' List ensures that you will receive important election messaging like the Voter Information Letter. This provides you with your Personal Identification Number (PIN) that will allow you to vote. Ensuring that your name is on the Voters' List before Voting Day will also assist with efficiencies during your time spent at the voting location.
