You vote in person at a polling station (usually in a public building, such as a school or local hall).
Poll cards are delivered shortly before an election. Each member of the household who is eligible to vote should receive a poll card informing them of the date of the election, where their polling station is and the hours of poll. You do not need to take the poll card with you to be able to vote.
