Make Sure Nothing Stops You Voting

To make sure that your voice is heard at any Local, Parliamentary and European elections you need to be on the Electoral Register. The Electoral Register is updated annually during August to November. For more information select the "Electoral Registration" link. If you are not sure that you are registered to vote, you can check with the Electoral Registration Office.

In December the latest version of the Electoral Register was published based on information collected during the annual canvass (August to November 2009).

If you have not completed a voter registion form for your current address, please contact the Registration Helpline.  You can also send an email (See under Contact Us) or check out the information on the website pages Electoral Registration and Elections (See under Also of Interest).
