Are you in?
By James Lawless ~ November 11th, 2008. Filed under: Politics.
Just a note to remind everyone that the new voting register for 2009 is currently being finalised. The draft register was issued on the 1st November but updates are still being processed up until 25th November. If you’re not on the register you won’t be able to vote so it’s pretty important!
Unfortunately it is still a paper process, there is an online link (General ; Kildare), but a paper form still has to be completed to make any changes. If you’re not in, you can’t win, so I would encourage anyone who is not down or who is unsure, to check and if not covered sign up.
You can check here to see if you’re covered, and if not, drop me a line and I’ll post you out a form. But hurry – the 25th is fast approaching!

As far as I know, I’m on the register. But, I’m not sure that I’ll be able to exercise my vote on the big day since I have to visit a particular polling station. With cuts in public transport looming, it’s getting more and more unlikely.
Just something to consider.

Hi Clare that’s a fair point, I don’t know to what extent people would be reliant on public transport to polling stations in the Naas area, but certainly on the day if anyone is stuck for transport, I am quite happy to oblige with organising lifts etc. Just let me know. Thanks for the comment. James
