Tell us about using voter ID in the local elections in England

Voters in England will be asked to present photo ID for the first time when they go to the polls on Thursday.

We want to hear from voters and polling station staff about how Thursday’s local elections go. Did you have an accepted form of ID? Had you signed up for the government’s voter ID – were you aware of it? Were you turned away – and if so, were you able to return with ID?

If you work at a polling station, we’d also like to hear about your experience – have you had to turn people away? How did they respond? Do you have any concerns?
