HOW TO
VOTE.
Voting is open now — 9 days left.
- OPEN NOW
Vote online, from anywhere
Thursday, October 8, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. until Monday, October 26, 2026 at 8:00 p.m.
You need the Voter Information Letter the Town mailed the week of September 28 to October 3. It carries a PIN that is yours alone, and that PIN is what logs you in. It takes a few minutes and you can do it from a phone.

YOU ARE NOT
LOCKED OUT.
Letters only go to people already on the voters’ list, and the list misses people every election — new addresses, recent moves, students, anyone who rents. You can be added right up to voting day.

Collingwood’s Clerk runs the election; we just reprinted it here because it is hard to find. Every date, time and address on this page was read off the Town’s own pages on October 11, 2026, and the Town’s procedures manual says the schedule can change at the Clerk’s discretion. If anything below disagrees with the Town, the Town is right.
