FAQ 3 - Council elections? I thought there was a general election!

You thought correctly! There is a general election on May 7th. But there are also local elections for both town and county councillors. In Nailsea only one ward, Yeo, is voting for town councillors as all the other wards have uncontested candidates. But all wards are voting for their county representative.

You vote for all elections at the same time and in the same place. Your polling card will tell you where you need to go to vote, though you don't need to take it with you. Polling stations are open between 7am and 10pm on election day.
