Special ballots available for Red Deer Catholic by-election

Mar 11, 2019 | 10:45 AM

Area voters will soon have the chance to cast their ballot in a by-election for Red Deer Catholic Regional School Board trustee.  

The by-election will take place on Mar. 25 and fill a vacancy in the Red Deer Area Ward.

The seat became vacant following the resignation of former trustee Adriana Lagrange last October after she won the United Conservative Party (UCP) nomination for Red Deer-North for the upcoming provincial election.

City officials say electors who are unable to make it to a voting station on Election Day may still vote using a Special (mail-in) Ballot.

Requests for a Special (mail-in) Ballot must be made in advance of Election Day.
