Northamptonians register to vote in record numbers

December 8, 2009 3:00 PM

Make sure you make your voice heard at next year's General Election. More people than ever have registered to vote in Northampton.

The increase means that over 154,000 have now signed up on the town's register - 4,000 more than last year.

In the two months, Lib Dem-run Northampton Borough Council, which compiles the Boroughwide list, canvassed over 93,000 homes to encourage people to exercise their right to vote.

A full copy of the register is available at the Guildhall's One Stop Shop. You can also see an edited version at the town's Central Library on Abington Street.

If you still need to register, you can do so by calling the Council's Electoral Services team on 01604 837111 or by emailing: elecreg@northampton.gov.uk.

The record high makes for interesting reading ahead of next year's General Election.
