Polling Districts and Polling Places Review

Today marks the start of a review period during which we are consulting on the suitability of polling stations and voting arrangements at elections. The review will aim to ensure that voting arrangements for future elections suit the needs of the electors in each area.  By law, Cornwall Council must conduct this Polling Districts and Polling Places Review every five years.  

 You can find more detailed information on the council's website at www.cornwall.gov.uk/review.  For example, you can find information on current polling stations and whether the council intend to retain them or seek/offer an alternative.  This information is listed first by parliamentary constituency and then by electoral division.  Each division schedule is then broken down into individual polling districts.  You can access the schedules and associated maps here:

If you struggle at polling stations and feel that your accessibility needs aren't met, then please let them know.

You can submit your views in a number of ways:

All responses to the first stage of the review must be received by Monday 15 April 2019.  If you need more information, please contact either John Simmons (01579 341533 / john.simmons@cornwall.gov.uk) or Alison Webb (01209 614191 / alison.webb@cornwall.gov.uk).
