Vancouver Rundown Friday October 23, 2026

Fewer British Columbians have voted in the advance polls. Elections BC says voter turnout is down 11 per cent over 2024. That’s a complete reversal from the trend that saw a record breaking 49 per cent jump last time when more than a million people cast a ballot ahead of election day. This time, just over 891-thousand votes have been cast. Provincial and civic election campaigns have overlapped this year.
