Poll cards

A poll card tells you that an election is taking place. It includes:

• the date of the election
• your ward, parish or constituency
• your polling station
• a reminder that you need photo ID to vote in person

You do not need your poll card to vote. It is for information only.

See the Register to vote page for further information and to check if you are registered. 

If you have lost your poll card

You can still vote.

Go to your polling station on election day and give your name, address and photo ID. You will then be given a ballot paper.

If you don’t know your polling station, you can find it on our Polling stations page.

Postal voters

If you vote by post, you will receive a pink postal poll card.

If your poll card is white and you expected a postal vote, contact the Elections team. 

For more information on postal votes see the voting by post or proxy (absent  voting) page.

If your poll card has not arrived

If you have not received a poll card, you might not be registered to vote.

You can check your registration by contacting the Elections team.
