multiple votes?
6 Answers
I'm a student and during term time I live in a different constituency to my permanent address. I appear to be registered to vote in both areas and have received poll cards for the general election at both addresses, so does it matter which constituency I vote in?
Thanks

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Students are entitled to two votes in local elections (allbeit not in the same area), if there happens to be a local election running at the same time as the general election in your area(s). Fort the general election you are allowed to be registered twice but only entitled to one vote - but you are free to choose which consituency from the two you use.

I strongly disagree with postal voting. What a dog's breakfast this election result will be. I already feel cheated of a clear and honest total. I think it is disgraceful that the Government recognise the fraud problem but wil do nothing about it until after the election. A good MP could lose his seat because of this; a bad one will get in. Serve everyone right who supports this system. Fraud IS happening left right and centre in case anyone hadn't heard as alot of places haven't enough staff to keep up with changes of address etc. What is wrong with going to a Polling Station occasionally? It is not watertight but it is the best method of deterring cheats. I'm sorry but I think even disabled people should go out - the shopping centres attract plenty of disabled persons'cars. Honestly, one would think it's on a par with going to the dentist. I think it should be a mandatory thing too, as even if people put their views all over the ballot paper that would be somet feedback of dissatisfaction to the powers-that-be. Also, there's a mess-up concerning UK troops stationed abroad. Wonder why that can be?
