In the UK, there are three different ways you can vote. How you vote is up to you. It may depend on what you find easiest or the most convenient method.

Most people vote in person at a local building called a polling station. However, if you are not able to go to the polling station in person on election day, you can apply to vote by post or by proxy. (Proxy means someone voting on your behalf with your permission). The following links will help you understand how to vote.
