The elections will take place on Thursday 6 May 2021.
The Police and Crime Commissioner election for Hertfordshire and the local Council election for the Borough of Broxbourne electoral wards will take place on Thursday 6 May 2021, following their postponement in May 2020.
The County Council election for the electoral divisions in the Borough of Broxbourne will also take place on Thursday 6 May 2021.
Those that have not already registered to vote must do so by midnight on Monday 19 April. Visit www.gov.uk/register-to-vote.
Voters have a range of options for casting their ballot – in person, by post or by appointing someone they trust to vote in their place, known as a proxy vote. The deadline to apply for a postal vote is 5pm on 20 April, and for a proxy vote the deadline is 5pm on 27 April.
Residents who have previously registered for a postal vote or to vote by proxy do not need to do anything unless they wish to change their arrangements, or have since registered at a different address.
For those who choose to vote in person, polling stations will be safe places to vote on 6 May. Voters are encouraged to keep themselves and others safe by wearing a face covering, bringing their own pen or pencil, cleaning their hands when entering and leaving the polling station and keeping a safe distance from others.
Voters must not attend a polling station if they have symptoms of COVID-19, or if they have been asked to self-isolate. There will be provisions in place to apply for an emergency proxy vote if required due to health circumstances.
