Registration
The deadline to register to vote in the UK Parliamentary General Election was midnight on Tuesday 18 June 2024.
If you were already registered to vote by Tuesday 28 May, your poll card was dispatched on Thursday 6 June.
Poll cards for those who successfully registered to vote between Tuesday 28 May and Tuesday 18 June will be dispatched on Thursday 27 June.
If you are unsure if you are registered to vote you can call Milton Keynes City Council on 01908 254706 to check.
You do not need to take your poll card to vote in an election.
Postal voting dates
The deadline to apply for a postal vote for the UK Parliamentary General Election was 5pm on Wednesday 19 June.
For electors who had successfully applied for a postal vote by Thursday 30 May, their postal vote was dispatched on Tuesday 18 June.
For electors who successfully applied for a postal vote between Friday 31 May and Wednesday 19 June, their postal vote will be dispatched on Wednesday 26 June.
Proxy voting dates
The deadline to apply to vote by proxy for the UK Parliamentary General Election was 5pm on Wednesday 26 June. The person you appoint as a proxy must be registered and eligible to vote in this election and will need to go to your allocated polling station in Milton Keynes to vote.
Given the short timescales involved in producing and sending postal voting packs for elections, and given that Postal Votes cannot be printed until after candidate nominations close on the 7 June, it is not always possible to guarantee delivery and return from an overseas location in time to be counted. We therefore strongly recommend that overseas electors apply to vote by proxy, nominating someone who is able to attend their Milton Keynes polling station to vote on their behalf.
Last year, the UK Government introduced a requirement for voters to show photo ID when voting at a polling station at some elections. This new requirement will again apply at the general election on 4 July.
Please visit our dedicated Voter ID page here to check which forms of ID you can use to vote and what to do if you don’t have an accepted form of photo ID.
Polling stations will be open from 7am – 10pm. A list of Polling Stations and the Democracy Club Polling Station Finder will appear here closer to the election.
If you’re worried about going to a polling station, or can’t get to one, you can now apply for a postal vote online or appoint a proxy online to vote on your behalf at your allocated polling station.
Please bear in mind that postal votes cannot be printed until after candidates are confirmed and ballot papers printed. This means that it is not always possible for postal votes to reach addresses that are not local in time for them to be returned by 4 July, especially for those who have not already set up a postal vote.
Voter Authority Certificate Dates
The final deadline to apply for a Voter Authority Certificate was Wednesday 26 June (5pm).
