Have Your Say on 6 May

Published: 4 May 2021

With just a few days to go until the Local and PCC Election, the city’s Returning Officer is encouraging residents to use their vote.

There are 17 wards in Derby and on Thursday 6th May 181,258 registered voters will have the opportunity to vote to elect Local Councillors to represent them on the City Council and a Police and Crime Commissioner for Derby and Derbyshire.

Emily Feenan, Returning Officer said:

Every vote matters and we want Derby residents to ensure their voices are heard this week. You don’t need your polling card to vote in person if you’re on the electoral register, but you’re welcome to take it along if you want to. For those who've opted for a postal vote, these have been issued and must be returned by 10.00pm on election day or they won't be counted. Completed postal vote packs can also be brought to the Council House or your local polling station on the day.

Following the Polling Place Review in 2020 some residents in Derwent, Littleover and Mickleover will find they have a new polling station. Other polling station changes for this election are listed below.

Please make sure to check your polling card or visit the Where Do I Vote website.

Polling stations will be open from 7.00am to 10.00pm.  Residents can vote if they are registered, are 18 or over on 6 May 2021 and are:

a British citizen, or

a qualifying Commonwealth citizen, or

a citizen of the Irish Republic.

Further details about elections can be found on Derby City Council’s election webpages.
