2025 General Election – Check if you’re registered to vote
Municipalities in Alberta are now required by provincial legislation to prepare and maintain a permanent electors register of residents (electors register) who are eligible to vote. Together with acceptable identification, the electors register will be used by election officials to verify the eligibility of individuals to vote in the Oct. 20, 2025 General Election.
The electors register must be compiled and revised by Elections Calgary primarily using information received from Elections Alberta. Elections Calgary encourages individuals to make their voting experience more efficient by checking if they are registered to vote with Elections Alberta and ensuring that their information is current before Aug. 1, 2025. Voters can check their information by visiting Elections Alberta’s Voterlink website, or by calling toll free at 310-0000, and then entering 780-427-7191. Detailed information about the electors register can be found on the Elections Alberta website.
Eligible voters will be able to cast their ballot even if they are not on the electors register. When eligible voters arrive at the voting station in October, they can present acceptable identification and complete a form that will add their name and information to the electors register before they cast their ballot.
The information in the electors register may only be used to verify voter eligibility, and no candidate, official agent or scrutineer shall access or use the electors register, including, without limitation, by taking a photograph or making a copy of the electors register.
More information on the 2025 General Election and the voting process can be found on the Elections Calgary website.
Elections Calgary is a division of the City Clerk’s Office responsible for independently and impartially administering the Returning Officer’s accountabilities in General Elections, by-elections and votes of the electors on behalf of The City of Calgary, the Calgary Board of Education and the Calgary Catholic School District.
