Elections for the Scottish Parliament and for your Council take place on 3rd May 2007.

Your Vote Matters

The Scottish Parliament and your Council make decisions that affect you and your community every day. But your vote influences who gets elected. In turn, the election results affect how Scotland is governed and the delivery of public services.

And that affects YOU.

It could be an ambulance rushing to an emergency; the waste you re-cycle; police officers on patrol; commuters on public transport; the sport you enjoy and the care you expect. Politics touch every part of your life.

By voting, you are helping shape the life of Scotland, your Scotland.

Am I Registered To Vote?
