On Thursday 6 May 2021 residents in Warrington will go to the polls to vote at the all out borough and parish elections and for the Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire .
The elections will take place at a time when COVID-19 continues to present risks to public health. We are working hard to ensure that the elections can go ahead in a COVID secure way.
Depending on the infection rate and restrictions in place, measures taken to control the spread of the virus may change as we approach May. This means we cannot currently answer all the questions you may have about how the election will be run. However, we are working hard with the Electoral Commission, the wider electoral community and public health authorities to help ensure you can stay safe when casting your vote in May in whichever way you choose.
We will update this page with further information as it becomes available. Further information is also available on the Electoral Commission website.
If you are standing for election and have any questions or concerns, head to the becoming a councillor page which contains useful guidance and information about the process.
If your details have recently changed (such as if you’ve moved house or changed your name) you need to let us know.
Although we're working to make sure our polling stations in May will be COVID-secure, you can apply for a postal or proxy vote.
