This Sunday, 9 June, marks an important day for citizens across Europe as they vote in the European Parliament elections, setting the political direction of the continent for the next few years. For many, the traditional census card delivered by post will guide them to their polling station. However, in our increasingly digital world, not everyone may keep track of such physical reminders.
For those who prefer a digital approach, the National Statistics Institute (INE) offers an easy online solution. By visiting their website, voters can quickly find out where they need to go to vote by logging in and following a few simple steps. Required information includes your province, municipality, and the initial of your surname.
Additionally, you can obtain this information by calling 900 343 232, where you’ll need to provide similar details to receive guidance.
Polling stations will be open from 9:00 to 20:00, providing ample time for everyone to participate in this vital democratic process. Remember, it’s crucial to bring an official form of identification, such as an ID card or passport. Even if these documents are expired, they must be original as photocopies are not accepted due to potential fraud risks.
Make sure to exercise your right to vote—it’s your opportunity to influence future policies and hold public officials accountable.
