A Simple Guide to Voting in YOUR Local and Mayoral Elections 2019
AS OF 2023 YOU MUST TAKE EITHER A DRIVING LICENCE OR PASSPORT TO VOTE. Another form of identification, the Voter ID Card, may also be accepted if you don't have either of the above. These should be provided for free by the government.

You do not need one if you are voting by post.
Please like (if you liked it) and share! Share with your friends, family, councillors (even the ones you don't like)! The more people get involved and learn about what's going on, the better it is for everyone.
Well, here it is, my third(?) real video! (I mean, it's identical to the last one, but who is counting really?) And it's here to inform you on how to vote and what to do on election day (and before, if you still need to register).
Remember, this is a LOCAL election for LOCAL council and mayoral candidates. Voting for them does nothing for anyone in Parliament, but it does do something for your LOCAL area, so choose wisely!
The scariest part about registering to vote is just getting the registration done with, and that's about as scary as a baby tortoise eating, so there's not really much to be scared about.
Plus, baby tortoises are adorable (https://youtu.be/jh-74eH6RIE).
So, sit back, relax and try to enjoy this video. If there are any questions, feel free to drop it in the comments. Maybe someone else can answer them. I just made a whole video, give me a break.
