Even if you have your voter information card, you will need to provide identification.

Bordeleau said some polls will likely have results within 15 minutes but the majority are expected to begin reporting about 45 minutes later. &#8220;And then the advanced polls, they usually take a little longer and they\u2019re usually at least an hour, they have quite a few ballots to count so that takes them at minimum probably an hour to an hour and a half.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Doppler will be reporting on local results as they become available.
