Students are encouraged to take part and cast your vote. This is your chance to exercise your democratic right and contribute your vote, and by extension your voice, to this debate. No matter how you vote or who you vote for, it is important that you have your say on your future.

To vote in the election you must have already registered by the deadline that passed on Tuesday 26 November.

Having registered you should have received a polling card, this card will explain which polling station you are registered to vote at, as well as its address so that you can easily locate it. It is also important to remember that whilst you can be registered at your home and term time addresses you may only vote in one location. You can also vote by post and/or proxy where necessary if you have applied in time to do so.
