🚚 Replacement packs will be hand-delivered by Tuesday, May 5. If you’re one of the affected voters, you can fill out your replacement pack and either return it immediately to the friendly staff who deliver it or take it to any polling station or County Hall before 10pm on election day.

The council has been quick to reassure everyone, noting that nearly 47,000 postal vote packs have already been sent out, with more than 26,500 returned to date. Still, they are leaving no stone unturned to ensure your voice is heard. πŸ—£οΈβœ”οΈ

So, rest assured, the council regrets any inconvenience and is committed to fixing the situation promptly. Make sure to get your vote in and be part of this historic moment. Let’s keep democracy strong and vibrant! πŸ’ͺπŸ‡¬πŸ‡§
