Elections Newfoundland and Labrador is responsible for conducting elections while ensuring fairness, impartiality and compliance with all aspects of the Elections Act, 1991.

In addition to the responsibilities associated with provincial elections, the office works cooperatively with Elections Canada, school boards and municipalities exchanging data to maintain accurate voters' lists for other electoral events.

These initiatives are supplemented by promotional activities aimed at encouraging voter registration and education programs in our schools to encourage youth participation in the voting process.

With a relatively small number of permanent staff, we are proud of the progress made since the last General Election and look forward to working closely with our field staff in meeting the challenges of the 2011 General Election.

Feel free to provide us with any comments or suggestions you may have with respect to the content and resources made available here.
