A UK General Election is taking place on Thursday 12 December 2019.
Significant numbers of UK residents have still to register to vote.
If you haven't registered to vote yet don't forget deadline 26th November.... www.gov.uk/register-to-vote link here.
Never been more important this is not just the next 5 years this is the Future of the UK for foreseeable future.
Still need to register to vote in the General Election?
All you need is your:
name
date of birth
National Insurance Number
It only takes 5 minutes so why not do it now?
REMEMBER
To vote in a general election you need to
-
Be 18 or over on the day of the election
-
Be a British, Irish or qualifying Commonwealth citizen
-
Be resident at an address in the UK (or a British citizen living abroad who has been registered to vote in the UK in the last 15 years)
-
Not be legally excluded from voting
You also need to be on the electorial register. If you've moved recently or changed your name, you may need to re-register.
This needs to be done by November 26th. You can register here: www.gov.uk/register-to-vote
GOING TO BE AWAY ON POLLING DAY?
Can I vote by post?
Many people already vote by post in every election. If this is you, then your postal votes will arrive as normal about 12 days before the election.
If you would like to vote by post - many people are saying this because 12th December is in the middle of winter - then you need to register. Again the deadline is 26 November 2019.
You can download a form here (this needs to be printed out).
MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND REGISTER TO VOTE BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE
END
