For political purposes, Ontario is geographically split up into areas called 'Ridings'. In each provincial election, members from separate political parties compete to represent an individual Riding in provincial parliament (ie Queen's Park). This means that when you vote, you will be selecting who you want to represent your riding in Parliament and the person with the most votes will become your riding's Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP). The leader of the political party that wins the most ridings will be elected as Ontario Premier.

While all eligible voters are able to vote on Election Day (June 2nd), you can also vote through other means. Advance polls are available prior to June 2nd (for a 10 day period), and are open from 10am to 8pm. You can also Vote by Mail. Click here to learn how to vote by mail.
