People in Exeter are being reminded that there will be no City Council elections in 2025 but there will be elections for Devon County Council.
Anyone who wants to vote in the Devon County Council elections on Thursday 1 May is being urged to make sure that they are on the electoral register.
To do this, people need to visit the Gov.uk website at www.gov.uk/register-to-vote. Those who are unsure if they are already on the register can contact the City Council directly at electoral.services@exeter.gov.uk or by calling 01392 265141.
People will also need to make sure they have appropriate photo ID if they are voting in person at a polling station. For a full list of accepted ID, visit the Gov.uk website at www.electoralcommission.org.uk/voting-and-elections/voter-id/accepted-forms-photo-id
Those who are unable or do not wish to vote at a polling station can opt for a postal vote. To do this, visit the Electoral Commission website at https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/voting-and-elections/ways-vote/apply-vote-post
Although people will be going to the polls to elect Devon County Councillors, there will be no City Council elections this year. This is because the City Council elects its councillors in ‘thirds’, meaning there are no elections every fourth year.
