Postal voting

Voting by post

Apply online to vote by post

You can apply to vote by post for one of the following:

• a single election on a specific date;
• a specific period;
• a maximum period of up to three years.

In order to apply to vote by post, you can apply online at the link shown above.  If you are not able to complete the online application, you can download and complete an  Postal Vote Application Form (OAVA) (PDF) [172KB]  .

Once completed, you can scan the application and email it back to us as postal.voting@gosport.gov.uk.  Alternatively, it can be returned to the address shown at the top of the form, or handed into the Town Hall.

Please note that if you use an electronic signature to sign your postal application, at election time you will be required to sign the postal voting statement that will be sent with your ballot paper.  This signature will be matched against the one provided on your application form and they must match.  If they do not, your ballot paper will be rejected and therefore will not count.
