Register to vote

Barnet has a high rate of voter registration, but 4 per cent of households are not yet on the register. There's still time to register to get your vote and have your say in how the local authority is run, and elect the person who will represent you in Parliament.

It's worth pointing out that citizens of other EU countries can register to vote in the council elections, even though they don't have a vote for the local MP.

The council has a hotline to help with registration. The deadline is Tuesday 20 April. From the council website:

People can phone 020 8359 4111 Monday-Friday, 9am until 5pm, and then from April 26, until 8pm, for assistance with voting issues.
