It’s been a very different election experience in Saskatoon this year.

Citizens went to the polls Monday as was planned, but a massive blizzard over the weekend made some roads impassable, so at 5 p.m. the city Returning Officer announced that voting would stop at 6:30 p.m. and the election would then take place Friday.
