|The Electoral Register
The Council publishes a new Register of Electors on 1st December each year. We send a household voter registration form to every residential property in the borough at the end of August each year and use the information you give us to publish the new Register. From December to August you can fill out an individual "rolling registration" form. We then publish an updated Register each month.

|Who has access to the Electoral Register?
Anyone can look at the Register of Electors, but copies of the Full Register are only supplied for certain purposes, such as credit checks, crime prevention and electoral purposes. The Edited Register is available for sale to anybody who wants to buy a copy. You can opt out of the Edited Register if you don't want your details to be sold.

| When are Elections held? Information about the candidates
Elections are usually held on the first Thursday of May each year. In 2008 there will be elections for Elmbridge Borough Councillors in all the borough's wards except Hinchley Wood and Walton Ambleside on Thursday 1st May.

|Where will my polling station be?
Polling stations are open from 7.00 a.m. to 10.00 p.m. We will send you a poll card before each election telling you where your polling station is. You do not have to bring the poll card with you but it will save time if you do. If you know which ward you live in you can find your polling station on the following list.

|How can I vote by post?
To vote by post all you have to do is complete an application form and send it to us. You do not have to state why you want to vote by post, unless you want your ballot paper sent to a different address to where you are registered to vote e.g. if your are at university.

|Can I ask somebody else to vote for me?
You can appoint a proxy to go to your polling station on your behalf. You must state why you want to appoint a proxy (e.g. if you will be away or cannot easily get to your polling station). You may need to ask somebody to support your application.
