Cobourg voter help centres: October dates, locations and privacy reminders

By Cobourg Beach editorial desk · Published October 6, 2026

Cobourg electors who need help casting a municipal or school-board ballot will have access to three Town-run Voter Help Centres during the October voting period. The Town’s Clerk’s team will manage the centres, which offer secure voting kiosks.

The voting period begins Friday, October 16, 2026 at 9 a.m. and ends Monday, October 26 at 8 p.m. The centres do not all open for that entire period; their individual schedules are below. All times are local.

Keep your ballot and PIN private

In its October 6 reminder, the Town advises voters to choose a private place to vote online and keep their mailed voting PIN secure. Do not pass your PIN or vote to somebody else. The Town also says voters are not obliged to disclose their choices, and that candidates and campaign volunteers must not interfere with someone casting a ballot or supply candidate electronic devices for voting.
