u/No-Birthday-9707

So I just received my voter information card for the municipal election, and it’s addressed to my old name. I legally changed my first and last name about two to three years ago, and I no longer carry any official documents or ID that prove I’m the person named on the card.

I called the federal government, and they said I would have to call New Westminster City Hall directly when they’re open to get help. I’m hoping they can update my name and send a new voter information card, or at least change the name on file and leave some kind of note about the mix-up.

I guess my question is: has anyone else gone through something like this so close to an election? If so, were you able to get it sorted out? thank you <3
