Only those whose names appear on the electoral register are entitled to vote.
Most people vote in person at a polling station.
Ideally, you should take your polling card with you when you go to vote, but this is not essential. A member of the polling staff will then hand you a ballot paper impressed with an official mark. You should then go to a voting booth, mark a cross against the name of the candidate for whom you wish to vote, fold your ballot paper and place it in the ballot box. Polling stations usually have special polling booths designed for wheelchair users. As a result of recent legal changes, polling stations will also in future have special tactile voting devices and large print display versions of the ballot paper, making it easier for blind and partially sighted electors to vote.
