The 19th May is the last chance for people to get on the electoral register to vote in the European Elections on June 4th.
The Electoral Commission has an excellent website, explaining how to get on the register in clear, easy to understand steps – but you need to make sure your registration form reaches your local council by the 19th May.
Getting more people on the electoral register is something people from all parties support. In that vein (and because it seemed a good idea when I was talking to some EC people last night) here comes a voting me me to try and get people in other places reminding people to get on the register.
Aside from school mock elections I didn’t get to vote myself until the 2004 Euros and Locals as my mum had my proxy. I’d like to take this opportunity to apologise to the people at the polling station in Adamsdown where I voted. I was VERY overexcited at 7am by the opportunity to take part in an election, especially because I was a candidate. I didn’t win (and I didn’t expect to) but the lovely Nigel Howells and John Dixon did.
So Bethan, Glyn, Peter, Marcus and Cyncial Dragon this is a meme tag for my first vote – when was it, where was it and who won?
Remember if you aren’t on the register you don’t get to have your say – so head along to http://www.aboutmyvote.co.uk/ to make sure you aren’t left out.
