Summary

 

This page contains information on absent voting. If you are unable to attend your polling station to vote, you can vote by post or appoint a proxy to vote on your behalf.

 

Postal Voting

 

Anyone on the Register of Electors can now vote by post. You can have a postal vote instead of going to your polling station.

 

You can request an application form by telephoning Leicester (0116) 2572722, or by emailing electoral.services@oadby-wigston.gov.uk| remembering to include your full name and address.

 

 

Proxy Voting

 

Alternatively, if you cannot attend the polling station on the day of the election, you can appoint a person to vote for you. This person, called a proxy, can visit the polling station and cast your vote on your behalf.

 

You can request an application form by telephoning Leicester (0116) 2572722, or by emailing electoral.services@oadby-wigston.gov.uk| remembering to include your full name and address.
