BURLINGTON, ON
For those of you who want instant access to the municipal election results – go to the Gazette HOME page and click on that red ELECTION RESULTS icon on the right hand side.
That will get you to our election results page which is updated every 90 seconds. We get a data feed from Dominion Voting Systems, the company that collects all the data from the polling clerks.
When you get to the Election Results page, and it is easy to get there, click on your ward and see instantaneous results.
All media have access to the data through a reserved media portal – and no – there is no way we can fiddle with the data. The site is secure.
The map of the city, broken out by wards is pretty simple to use. Just click on your ward on the map and the most recent election results show up.
Will there be problems. Maybe – we will be watching closely.
