Cormac is encouraging anyone who has turned 18 over the last number of months or who has moved into the house into the area or has recently changed address to ensure that they are on the register. It is equally important that everyone who is/should be on the register now, they should check the register to make sure that their details are correct.
Please note that anyone who has submitted a form since the 2018 / 2019 Register was published (last February 2018) will not be able to see their details online as they have applied to go on a Supplement to the 2018 / 2019 register, including people who voted in the last referendum in May.
All polling cards issue for those on the published register (that from February 2018) first and then the polling cards for all the voters on the supplementary register will issue prior to the 26th of October.
