The Law Society will be introducing electronic voting into the election process this year and will be utilizing the services of ClearPicture.

In order to provide for this, Benchers approved amendments to Part IV – Election Rules and the associated Form 4.01A. The amended Election Rules and amended Form 4.01A can be found at the following links:

Part IV – Election Rules: https://lsnl.ca/lawyers/lawyer-regulation/law-society-rules/part-iv/#nomination-for-election

Form 4.01A: https://lsnl.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Form-4.01A.pdf

While we have retained the ability to use paper ballots for those who may not be able to vote electronically, we hope to be able to phase out the use of paper ballots over time.

Further details regarding how to vote in this year’s election will be circulated shortly.
