Bracebridge is urging residents to get out and vote as the municipal election nears.
Director of Corporate Services and Town Clerk Lori McDonald says since advance polls opened voter turnout is at 17 per cent for the municipality. She says with the cut off for voting just days away, the town is hoping to see that number push much higher.
If you’ve received a Voter Information Letter with your ID number, you can go online now to cast your vote any time of day or night up until Monday.
