How do I vote?
Poll cards are delivered shortly before an Election. Each member of the household who is eligible to vote should receive a poll card which informs them of the date of the election, where their polling station is and the hours of poll.
- You do not need to take the poll card with you to be able to vote.
- For Local Elections the hours of poll are 7.00 am to 10.00 pm
- For Parliamentary and European Elections the hours of poll are 7.00 am to 10.00 pm
- For General Elections the hours of poll are 7.00 am to 10.00 pm
On arrival at your designated polling station, the Presiding Officer will ask you to confirm your name and address and will issue you with a ballot paper.
The ballot paper will be marked with an official stamp.
You should take the ballot paper to the voting booth and mark with a "X" the candidate(s) you wish to vote for.
Fold the ballot paper and deposit it in the ballot box.
