Question for UK voters
Jun. 13th, 2024 08:42 pmWith three weeks to go to the general election, has anyone received their polling card yet?
I'm sincerely hoping that they did not expect the card for the local elections to be reused, because I shredded it about an hour after voting - it has a lot of ID information etc. and I really didn't want anyone to find it and use it to get credit or something.
Later - thanks to everyone who commented! I know that the card strictly speaking isn't necessary to vote if you have ID, one of my reasons for wondering is that they changed my local constituency in the last lot of boundary changes - I had to vote in a different building in the council elections and I want to be sure it will be the same place this time. It looks like the cards went out in the last few days, so hopefully I'll know soon.
