Voters in municipalities across New Brunswick will head to the polls on May 14th, 2012 to elect or re-elect members to represent them, their needs and desires in their municipal governments.
It is important that you go out and vote because:
- We live in a democracy, so it is important to exercise your right. Voting is a privilege that is taken for granted far too often. In many nations worldwide, people just like you and I are not fortunate enough to have the right or option to choose their representatives.
- By voting, you are showing your interest in community affairs.
- Casting your vote allows you to have an impact on the shaping of your future, and our future.
