Wokingham voters are going to the polls today with local elections taking place as well as the Police and Crime Commissioner election for the Thames Valley.
Polling stations opened from 7am and will close at 10pm tonight with all 54 seats up for grabs at the borough election.
The state of the roads including potholes and the issue around the rubbish and recycling changes due to come into force soon seem to be high on the agenda for many voters today.
Your poll card tells you when and where to vote and you must go to your allocated polling station. You do not need to take your polling card with you to vote, but you must take suitable photo ID. Although it is not the first year when photo ID is mandatory, not all wards had elections in 2023 and for many people this will be the first time they have needed to bring it to vote at a polling station. If you fail to turn up with suitable ID, you will not be issued with a ballot paper.
The count starts at 9am tomorrow, Friday (3rd May). The estimated declaration times for the Wokingham Borough Council elections is 4pm.
