“Severn is offering online voting for the first time with the 2022 Election. Our goal is to provide a high-quality, accessible, and simple voting experience that will incentivize more people to vote. Some electors in Severn may not be able to attend our in-person Voting Centres, and the online option allows them the convenience of voting at home or from wherever they can access the internet.”—Alison Gray, Clerk, Township of Severn
