Scotland’s national advice agency has issued a reminder that the deadline for voter registration in the upcoming General Election is less than a week away. Advice Direct Scotland said people who are intending to cast a vote in the election on July 4 must register before midnight on Tuesday, June 18.
To be allowed to vote, people must be aged 18 or over on the day of the election and be a British citizen, a qualifying Commonwealth citizen or a citizen of the Republic of Ireland. There is no need for people to register to vote before every election, but those who have moved house or changed their name since the previous contest in 2019 might need to re-register and should check with their electoral registration office as soon as possible.
“More than three million people registered in the run-up to the last general election, which put electoral registration offices under a lot of pressure, so the sooner you do it the better.” One in 10 people surveyed said they were planning to register to vote ahead of the upcoming election.
