Municipality of Highlands East

The Municipality of Highlands East will again use the alternative voting system “Vote-by-Mail" for the 2010 municipal election. This alternative voting method was successfully used in the 2000, 2003 and 2006 municipal elections and was found to be very efficient and yielded a high voter turnout.

Vote-by-Mail eliminates polling stations, advance polls and proxy voting. It transforms every mailbox into a ballot box. Voting is as easy as mailing a letter. Vote-by-Mail kits will be provided to every person who qualifies to be an elector.
