 Bring Your ID to Vote

Remember to bring your Identification along with your Voter Information Card when you go to vote in person at the polling location.  You need to show proof of "who" you are and "where" you live. A valid PEI Drivers License or a Gov't Issued ID card are the best forms of ID to use when voting.

As per the Election Act Section 65.1 (a) & (b)
An elector shall provide the following proof of the elector’s identity and, subject to subsection (3), the elector’s residence for the purposes of clause 65(1)(b):
(a) one piece of identification issued by the provincial government, or an agency of it, showing the elector’s name and address;
(b) two pieces of identification of a type authorized under subsection (2), each of which establishes the elector’s name and at least one of which establishes the elector’s address.
