Accessible Voting
The City of Brampton is committed to making voting accessible for everyone. We provide accessible voting locations in every ward, offer different voting options and supply accessibility tools at voting locations. Voters may also bring their own devices to help mark their ballot. Learn more below about how we make voting accessible during municipal elections.
Voting Locations
We review every voting location to make sure it has accessible parking, barrier-free routes and accessible entrances. We may make temporary modifications to ensure they meet our accessibility standards.
Every voting location also offers:
Access for voters accompanied by a support person or service animal
How to Vote information available in large font and 11 languages
Note pads and pens for voters who are deaf, deafened or hard of hearing
Magnifying sheets (4x) for voters with low vision
Assistance marking a ballot for voters who request it
Find your voting locations for the 2026 Brampton Municipal Election using our Where Do I Vote tool or confirm if you're on the Voters' List using the Am I On the List tool.

Voters who want to vote privately and independently in-person at a voting location can use:
- Accessible voting equipment at each advance voting location and at one designated location in each ward on Voting Day. Accessible voting units allow voters with accessibility requirements to select the candidate(s) of their choice using a touch screen, audio component, Braille keypad, sip/puff tube device or rocker paddle/foot switch features
- Support from election workers to read and mark the ballot
Communication and Customer Service
We are committed to providing election information in alternative formats upon request.
All election workers receive accessible customer service training to ensure they can serve and assist voters.
We communicate any service disruptions that affect the accessibility of voting locations on the City’s website and social media channels and at the location itself.
Voters can share accessibility feedback by emailing bramptonvotes@brampton.ca.
Language Support and Interpreters
We translate key voting information and how to mark your ballot into 11 languages to serve the diverse Brampton population. How to Vote information is available at all voting locations.
Election workers can act as interpreters to explain voting instructions to voters who do not understand English. Voters may also bring their own interpreter.
Alternate formats can be requested by emailing bramptonvotes@brampton.ca or by using the online form at brampton.ca/alternativeformat.
