After the first four days of advanced polls, over 19,400 voters took advantage of the ten early polling locations across the city.
According to Elections Saskatoon, based on the number of eligible voters, this translates to around 10 per cent overall turnout.
Eligible voters still have several opportunities over this week to mark their ballot for Saskatoon’s next mayor, city councillors and public and separate school board trustees for the next four-year term.
