The Tenant Why Vote? Special Election Edition! Federation of Metro Tenants’ Associations
The Tenant Federation of Metro Tenants’ Associations - Fighting for Tenants’ Rights since 1974 - November 2006 Special Election Edition! Why Vote? How to Vote By Dan McIntyre 1. Because it is your right. 2. Because many elections are very close. Your vote could make the difference between a candidate who understands the needs of tenants and one who doesn’t. One apartment building could make the difference. 3. Because you have an interest in municipal issues like parks, the TTC, garbage services and many other things – just like homeowners. 4. Because you want to make your voice heard regarding enforcement of property standards and other tenant services. 5. Because you are the best judge of which candidate is the best for your area. 6. Because politicians pay attention to communities where people vote. 7. Because it’s free to vote. It’s easy. And you only get to do it once in a while. If your name is on the voters' list you will receive a voter information card in the mail in late October. This card will tell you where you vote during the two weekend days of advance voting and on election day, November 13th. If you don’t receive a voter information card, call the City of Toronto at 416-3381111 for more information. For TTY service call 416338-0889. If you don’t have a voter information card by November 13th, you may add your name to the list when you go to vote. Please bring along at least one piece of personal identification with you showing your name and address in Toronto. When you go to vote, bring your voter information card and at least one piece of personal identification showing your name and address in Toronto. At the voting location: 1. Give your identification to a ballot officer who will cross your name off the voters' list and give you a ballot and a secrecy folder 2. Go behind a voting screen 3. Mark your ballot by connecting the head and tail of the arrow next to the candidate of your choice 4. Place your marked ballot in the secrecy folder 5. Go to the tabulator officer at the vote counting equipment who will insert your ballot into the tabulator 6. Your vote is then recorded and tallied 7. All numbers are stored in the machine until the voting location closes Chiappetta, John Mignone, Joseph Milczyn, Peter Roszak, Arthur Tchernev, Bojidar Ward 5 EtobicokeLakeshore Daly, Shane Lindsay
