Eligible voters are being reminded to get out and make their voices heard at the polls tomorrow. 

Jackie Schlamp, returning officer and city clerk for the City of Swift Current, hopes to see voter numbers spike after lower turnouts during the early voting phases this year. 

"I just encourage all residents within our city to take this opportunity on November 13th to please get out and vote," said Schlamp. 

The three polling locations in Swift Current this year are Chinook Golf Course Clubhouse, Trailview Alliance Church, and the InnoivationPlex Auditorium. 

Doors will open at each station at 9 a.m., with polling open until 8 p.m. 

Voters are asked to please attend the polling station closest to their residence. 

"And bring their identification with them," noted Schlamp. "Preferably photo ID, such as driver's license. If not then a health card or a blank check that shows their residence and confirmed address, as well as a utility bill that shows their place of residence, or a tax assessment." 

This election is only for city council candidates this year. The position of Mayor in Swift Current is held by Al Bridal, who was acclaimed after no one stepped up to run against him.
