The general election will take place on Thursday, July 4, and polling stations will be open from 7am to 10pm.
Following changes to parliament constituency boundaries, all residents in Wokingham Borough now fall into one of two areas for electing local Members of Parliament:
- Earley and Woodley
- Wokingham
Residents can view a map of current and new boundaries on the House of Commons library website. They can also check their constituency by putting in their postcode into the Electoral Commission’s upcoming elections checker.
Candidates for each constituency will be published by 5pm on Friday, June 7.
There have been a number of significant changes introduced to elections and the voting process in the last year and, with only a month to go, Wokingham Borough Council is urging residents to make sure they are prepared and to take action now to ensure they can have their say.
Anyone wishing to vote in the general election needs to be registered to vote. The deadline to register is 11.59pm on Tuesday, June 18, and it takes five minutes to do.
