Mine arrived on the 21 June. Sent back the next day so it should have been received in good time.

Mine was posted back on 21 June. They told me it was posted on 14 June when they came back from printers.
OH only received his yesterday - they 'said' they had posted it on 17 June.

I didn't chance a postal vote as it came too late last time I tried it. I'm voting by proxy. I will vote but I know it will be pointless. My UK constituency is where Farage is odds on favourite. The party I normally vote for has decided to send their candidate up North and local party workers have not been allowed access to publicity material to help with their canvassing. I'm so disgusted that they haven't even put up a fight against Farage.

I got my postal vote posted a week ago today. I am amazed that the top party candidates were imported from far away from the constituency and only a couple actually lived in the constituency. This might be normal, I don’t know as this is the first UK vote I have ever had. I don’t expect any imported candidate would have a clue as to the problems in the area, so who would vote for them? I imagine my vote is still hovering en route, is that what you call a floating voter?

How will you know if your vote has been counted or not?

As far as I know there is no way of knowing.

How will you know if your vote has been counted or not? In theory it should be possible. Every voter is recorded ( but not of course who they voted for), so the returning officer should be able to confirm whether you are on the list of those who cast a vote. Now if you asked, I ha ve no idea whether they would give a response or not.

Mine arrived on Friday 5th July.
OH’s arrived previous Friday so went to the post office same day. I was told it would take three to five working days to get delivered- hopefully his did arrive in time. Applied for postal vote for both of us on 14/6 - I even received a card on 21/6 saying my voting papers were on their way. No card received for OH. I’ve made a formal complaint to Electeral Commissioner.
