Advance voting in Oakville’s municipal election ended on Sunday, October 18, 2026. During ten days of advance voting, 14,787 ballots were cast at voting locations across Oakville, demonstrating strong early participation by voters.

Oakville’s eligible voter population has continued to grow since the previous municipal election. Advance voting remained a popular option with 8.35 per cent of Oakville's electoral population casting their ballot before election day.

This year, the Town added an additional day of advance voting and again offered in-person voting over the Thanksgiving long weekend, providing great convenience and flexibility for voters, including post-secondary students who were home for the holiday.
