Voting and elections

We run all local, regional and national elections that take place in the district. We also maintain the electoral register. We seek to manage these in a transparent, accountable and innovative way. Our aim is to make sure that local people are fully able to exercise their right to vote and to influence decisions that affect their lives. 

View voting and election information, including how to vote, election notices and results.

Your vote matters – don’t lose it. To be able to vote at an election you need to be registered to vote. 

Can’t get to your polling station? You can apply to vote by post.

Elections on Thursday 7 December 

By-elections will take place on Thursday 7 December 2023 in Harpenden Rural county division (Hertfordshire County Council) and Sandridge & Wheathampstead district ward (St Albans City and District Council).

Household Voter Registration Canvass

The annual household voter registration canvass runs from early July until the end of November to ensure that the electoral register is kept up to date.
