Postal Voting

Postal voting allows eligible voters to cast their ballot by mail instead of going to a polling station. It provides a convenient way to participate in elections, especially for those unable to visit polling places due to health, travel, or work commitments. Voters typically request a postal vote, receive the ballot papers by mail, fill them out at their convenience, and return them by a specified deadline. This process aims to make voting accessible and ensure everyone has an equal opportunity to take part in the democratic process, maintaining the integrity and secrecy of the ballot.
