After months of political campaigning, Election Day has finally arrived.

We encourage you — if you have not already — to get out and vote. Cast your opinion, not only for a heated presidential race but many important local races as well.

Before you go out to vote, however, make sure you have done your research on the candidates. What are their backgrounds? What do they stand for? What are their goals for the future? How do their views align with your views and your priorities?

If you want to find out a lot about the candidates quickly, check out the Elections tab on Albertleatribune.com. All the news related to the election has been posted to this tab, and you could easily scroll through and read the stories there.

Don’t play Eeny, meeny, miny, moe with the future of our city and country.

Be educated when you head out to the polls.
