Are you on the Voter’s List?
The Voter’s List is a list of eligible electors in the Township of Limerick. After September 1st, 2026 you must update, change or remove your information directly at the Township of Limerick Municipal Office

Students Living Away From Home
If you are a student and consider your “home” to be the place where you live when you are not attending school, which means you plan on returning there, then you are eligible to vote in both your “home” municipality and in the municipality where you currently live while attending school.
Voting in More Than One Municipality
You can be a resident elector in only one municipality. If you own or rent property in a municipality, but it’s not the one where you live, you are a non-resident elector. You can be a non-resident elector in any other municipality (or municipalities) where you own or rent property. A spouse of a non-resident elector is also eligible to vote in in the municipality or municipalities other than the one where you live. Neither you nor your spouse qualify as a non-resident elector if you do not personally own or rent the property in the municipality.
If you are not certain whether you qualify as a non-resident elector you should check with the Clerk’s Office.
School Support
As of January 1, 2024, the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (“MPAC”) is no longer responsible for collecting voter information for local elections. However, MPAC is legislatively required to collect school support designations.
Update your school support through MPAC’s Online School Support Page.
