Since September, Wrexham Council’s electoral department has been carrying out the annual canvass to make sure that all residents of the county borough who are able to vote, have registered.
This work is nearly complete, so what comes next?
Now we know who is eligible to vote, we move on to the second stage. This means that if the canvass showed there are people in your household who aren’t registered you will be sent an Invitation to Register. Completing this form will mean that you are able to vote when election time comes around.
If you receive an Invitation to Register, either by email or a paper form, please don’t ignore it…being involved in democracy means using your vote, but to be able to do that you must be registered. You can also register online at www.gov.uk/register-to-vote. It only takes about 5 minutes and you will need your national insurance number. This will save the council money on printing and postage costs.
