ENS Release:
During the early voting period, Elections Nova Scotia (ENS) will provide daily statistics on early voting for the 42nd provincial general election (PGE) each morning.
The daily voting stats will reflect early voting numbers as of the close of polls (6 pm) the previous day. The stats will include the number of votes cast at early voting opportunities including the returning office continuous polls (ROCP), as well as community polls and advanced polls when they open, and the number of write-in ballot applications processed. These numbers add to make the total number of early votes cast as of that date in the PGE.
ENS also provides a comparison of these daily stats with the early voting stats from the 2021 PGE.
