Deadlines for electoral ID and exceptional circumstances forms
People hoping to cast their vote on 6 May should be aware of a number of deadlines applying for Electoral Identity Cards and applications for exceptional circumstances for postal and proxy votes.
Firstly, people wishing to apply for an electoral Identity Card need to have their application in before the deadline on Friday 23 April so it can be processed in time.
Also, anyone who has just received confirmation for admission to hospital for an operation/treatment and will be unable to make it to the polling station on election day and who wishes to apply for a postal or proxy vote on the grounds of exceptional circumstances must have their forms in before Tuesday 27 April.
