We know some postal voters are concerned they have not yet received their UK Parliamentary general election ballot pack.
Postal votes for the Bassetlaw Constituency and Bassetlaw wards of the Newark Constituency were despatched on the following dates:
12th June if you are an overseas elector or 19th June if you live in the UK and were already a postal voter before 22 May, or are a new applicant with an application processed by 4th June.
24th June if you live in the UK and are a new postal vote applicant with an application processed by Wednesday 19 June.
How to apply for a replacement postal vote pack
If you haven’t received your postal vote pack, you can apply for a replacement up until 5pm on polling day, 4 July. To do this please call us on 01909 533252.
Before we can give you a replacement postal vote pack, we will ask for proof of identity. For example a passport, driving licence, buss pass.
For replacement requests made before 5pm on Wednesday 3 July, these can be delivered or collected from Queen’s Buildings, Potter Street, Worksop, S80 2AH.
By law, any replacement requests made between 5pm on Wednesday 3 July and 5pm on Thursday 4 July must be made in person with accepted proof of identity. We will then issue your postal vote pack to you in person and you can return it straight away.
Returning your postal vote pack by hand
If you receive your postal vote pack and would like to return it by hand rather than by post:
- You can return it to the address printed on your pack during office hours until 4 July.
- You can also return it to a polling station in the same constituency.
When you return a postal vote pack by hand, you must fill in a form for the pack to be accepted.
An individual can return their own postal vote and up to five additional postal votes at this election from family, friends or neighbours.
Candidates and campaigners are not allowed to collect or return postal votes on electors’ behalf.
