Voter turnout in 2016 was 76.4 per cent, which dropped to 65.6 per cent in 2021 and fell further in the vote in November to 53.1 per cent. 

Elections Yukon says in a statement that while there has been an increase in both population and voters over the past three elections, the actual number of voters has remained about the same.

The review will look at the way eligible voters are counted and factors which may have affected a person's level of engagement, access, or interest in voting.

Elections Yukon wants to hear from the public on the issue and says a report will be submitted to the legislative assembly with the findings of the review and any recommendations.
