What's New for 2026:
Recent legislative changes have made Elections Ontario responsible for maintaining and providing the data for the Voters' List for municipal and school board elections, a role previously held by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC).

Internet & Telephone Voting
Seguin Township will once again be implementing Internet and Telephone Voting for the 2026 Municipal Election in October, 2026. This system replaces the traditional polling place method and eliminates the need for advance polls and voting proxies. It also improves voter access and increases voter participation. As the election draws closer we will be including more information about the voting process on this page. In Seguin the Mayor is elected at large, which means all eligible voters choose from the same mayoral candidates when voting. Councillors are elected to represent one of six wards, one Councillor per Ward.
