Anyone who votes by post in Exeter is being asked to renew their postal vote applications.
All postal vote applications are now only valid for a maximum of three years. Those who applied for a postal vote before 30 January 2024, will need to reapply by 31 January 2026 to continue voting by post.
The quickest way to renew is online via Apply for a postal vote – GOV.UK.
People can also download a paper form from the Electoral Commission or request one via the following contact form (select ‘Other Service’).
The City Council is contacting all postal voters by email where possible. The messages will come from electoral.services@exeter.gov.uk with the subject line Exeter City Council – Postal Vote Renewal Notice.
If the Council doesn’t have a voter’s email address, or hasn’t received a response, a letter will have been sent in the post.
People who receive an email or letter by post are asked to respond as soon as possible if they wish to renew their postal vote.
