When Plessisville votes
The last and next general elections at each level; a by-election can come in between.
| Election | Last | Next |
|---|---|---|
| Plessisville council | 2 November 2025 | 4 November 2029 |
| National Assembly of Québec | 5 October 2026 | – |
| House of Commons | 28 April 2025 | – |
Plessisville council was elected on 2 November 2025, and the next vote is on 4 November 2029. It is the first Sunday in November every four years, as the Act respecting elections and referendums in municipalities provides. Provincially the last general election was on 5 October 2026, for the National Assembly of Québec; federally, on 28 April 2025. No open copy of the 2025 counts exists, and Elections Canada’s own terms rule out commercial reuse, so 2021 is the last vote shown.
