I've noted before that Scott Moe's spring election posturing prevented Elections Saskatchewan from putting together a full postal balloting system for this fall's provincial election. And I haven't yet heard of any municipalities going to a full vote-by-mail balloting system for their subsequent votes (though I'd be interested to hear if any are trying).
But that doesn't mean voters can't cast a ballot by mail - only that they'll need to be prepared well in advance in order to do so.
With that in mind, here are links to the mail-in ballot application processes for...
- Elections Saskatchewan (Application deadline has passed)
- City of Estevan (November 9)
- City of Martensville (Application deadline has passed)
- City of Meadow Lake (Application deadline has passed)
- City of Melfort (November 9)
- City of Moose Jaw (Application deadline has passed)
- City of North Battleford (Application deadline has passed)
- City of Prince Albert (Online deadline has passed, November 9 in person)
- City of Regina (November 9)
- City of Saskatoon (October 30 online, November 8 in person)
- City of Warman (Application deadline has passed)
- City of Weyburn (Application deadline has passed)
Note that the timing of an application will be crucial. In most cases cities should be receiving applications by now, meaning that the primary concern is to make sure applications are sent in time to be received by the deadlines above.
Other cities including Lloydminster and Yorkton have approved of mail-in balloting processes, but don't appear to have detailed information available online. I'll update with links as they become available.
[This will be a pinned post throughout election season - I'll plan to update it as registration windows open and close.]

ReplyDeleteIndeed, that's to keep it at the top of the main page throughout the provincial and municipal election season.
DeleteAh. Okay. I clicked on "newer post" and thought I'd got sent back to 2019. Then I saw 2020, and thought there'd been a mistake.
DeleteCarry on.
