The city has opened the 2011 election office and launched the election website to provide information to voters and prospective candidates in advance of the Nov. 19, 2011 municipal vote. The website, vancouver.ca/vote, allows voters to see if they are currently on the voters list, find out how to register to vote, learn more about increased advance voting opportunities and locations, and use the address search to identify voting places for advance voting dates and for the Nov. 19 vote. The website also has detailed information for prospective candidates, electoral organizations and campaign organizers. Over the coming days, more information will be added to the site to assist voters in advance of the election. The city's election office is at 450 W. Broadway, a few steps east of the Broadway/City Hall Canada Line station. The office is open from 8: 30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday to Friday (excluding statutory holidays) until Nov. 19. Election staff is available at the office or by calling 3-1-1 (6048737000) to provide information about voter registration, running as a candidate and voting in the municipal election. 3-1-1 service is available in more than 180 languages.
