B.C. votes: polls open across the province until 8 p.m.

Voters across British Columbia are heading to the polls on the final day of the provincial election, according to Global News BC. The outlet's article, titled "B.C. election 2026: Polls open across the province," was published Oct. 24, 2026.

Global News BC reports that polls are open until 8 p.m. It says anyone still in line at that time can vote. The report does not give an opening time or list voting locations.

Metro Vancouver voters

The Vancouver Sun reported that voters in the Tri-Cities, Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows were headed to the polls as part of the province-wide vote. Its coverage is framed around the B.C. Election 2026.

Why it matters

Today is the last day to vote, so anyone in Metro Vancouver who hasn't cast a ballot has until the 8 p.m. close. The line rule, as reported by Global News BC, means people already waiting at that time should still be able to vote.

The closing time and line rule come from Global News BC's reporting. The sources available to NORTHLINE do not include turnout figures or results.
