Local Election 2024 – Polling Cards
The deadline for applying to join the Register of Electors passed on May 20, 2024.
Polling cards have issued for all persons on the Register of Electors as of 7 May 2024.
However, if you don’t receive this card, but are on the Register, you can still present to vote.
People should use checktheregister.ie to check if they are registered and if you locate your registration, you can see the name and location of your polling station.
If a person cannot find themselves on the Register call 045 980 201.
When you attend to vote, ensure you bring a valid form of personal identification, information at www.electoralcommission.ie/where-to-vote/
A second batch of polling cards will issue in late May for applications made between May 7 and May 20, 2024, and which have been added to the Register.
These persons will receive a Polling Card during the first week of June, prior to Polling Day, June 7.
