Annual canvass reminding residents to check voter registration details
Annual canvass reminding residents to check voter registration details
--
There have been two elections this year but the annual canvass is still a legal requirement and will be carried out by Local Authorities across the UK.
Pembrokeshire residents are asked to check their electoral registration details are up to date to ensure they are eligible to vote in future.
The annual canvass allows Pembrokeshire County Council to keep the electoral register up to date, to identify who risks losing their voice at elections, and to encourage them to register before it’s too late.
Anyone aged 16 or over can vote in Welsh Local Government and Senedd elections, regardless of where they were born.
Recent home movers in particular are urged to check their details.
Many residents will have already received an email asking to check and confirm their details but if not you will receive a letter in the next week.
Will Bramble, Electoral Registration Officer at Pembrokeshire County Council said: “The annual canvass is our way of making sure that the information on the electoral register for every address is accurate and up to date.
“To make sure you don’t lose your say at elections, simply follow the instructions sent to you.
