Polling Station Consultation

Fiona Bruce MP urges constituents to check proposed changes to local polling stations


There is to be a consultation on proposed changes to polling stations in the constituency.  A table of the potential changes and information about the consultation can be found at http://www.cheshireeast.gov.uk/council_and_democracy/local_democracy/electoral_services/review_of_polling_stations.aspx. 

The changes largely intend to move people closer to their polling station and or make them more convenient for usage such as moving away from using schools which then have to close during polling day.

Fiona Bruce MP is urging all residents to view these proposals and if concerned to comment by the deadline of 4th November.  All comments should be made in writing to Electoral Services, Westfields, Middlewich Road, Sandbach, Cheshire, CW11 1HZ or they can be e-mailed to pollingstationreview@cheshireeast.gov.uk
