If you have not received your postal vote, or if it has been lost or spoilt, you can request a replacement postal vote pack up until 5pm on polling day.

Replacement postal packs must be collected in person from The Municipal Building, Widnes WA8 7QF or The Portal, Wellington Road, Ellesmere Port CH65 0BA.

Postal votes can be returned:

  • to a polling station in the constituency between 7am and 10pm on polling day
  • to The Municipal Building, Widnes WA8 7QF between 9am and 5pm
  • to the Portal, Wellington Road, Ellesmere Port CH65 0B between 9am and 5pm

Anyone handing a postal vote in will need to fill in a return form, but won’t need to show ID.

While an individual can return their own postal vote and up to five additional completed postal votes from family/friends/neighbours, each vote must only be cast by the person it’s for – who must also sign and give their date of birth on the accompanying postal vote statement.

Candidates and campaigners are only allowed to handle postal votes for other electors who are close family or someone they regularly provide care for.
