A number of people have been left having to scramble to southribblebc HQ to be able to vote today 🗳️
Some South Ribble residents who opted to vote by post in this year’s local elections had still not received their ballot papers as polling day dawned on Thursday, the Local Democracy Reporting Service understands.
The LDRS has been told that the problem – the origin of which is unknown – resulted in some concerned voters turning up at South Ribble’s Civic Centre HQ on West Paddock on Thursday morning, worried that they would be unable to make their voice heard at the once-in-four-year poll. Chris Sinnott, chief executive of South Ribble Borough Council said, “We are aware that a small percentage of residents who have opted to vote by post have not received their postal voting packs.
“We have made postal vote packs available in the Civic Centre for people to collect if they can and are also hand delivering postal vote packs to affected residents.
