How to vote
Why vote?
2018 is the centenary of women’s suffrage
6 February marked 100 years since the Representation of the People Act was passed, giving some women the right to vote for the first time.
On the centenary of women’s suffrage, ensure you can exercise your right.
Your vote matters
In March 2018 over 268,000 people were registered to vote.
Voted
But in the 2014 local election, only 100,500 people actually voted.
Didn’t
This means that over half the people registered to vote, didn’t vote.
