Advance polls were open on Friday, April 18; Saturday, April 19; Sunday, April 20; and Monday, April 21, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. each day.

“This is an estimate. Some polls may not have reported yet,” said Elections Canada.

A breakdown of the estimated number of electors who voted at the advance polls for all electoral districts is being calculated and will soon be available on elections.ca
