POSTAL voters are being advised they could receive more than one voting pack in the days leading up to the May 7 elections.
There are Parliamentary, district and parish elections all on the same day and residents will receive between one and three envelopes.
There are white ballot papers for the parliamentary election, green for the district elections and beige for the parish elections.
Voters should follow the instruction in each pack and return each ballot paper and completed voting statement in the correct envelope.
Tendring Council returning officer Ian Davidson said: βIt may sounds confusing, but the main thing is to follow the instructions provided in each pack. All of the postal voting papers have now been issued and I would urge people to return them as soon as possible.β
For any queries on postal votes, call the election team in Tendring on 01255 686566 or Colchester on 01206 282820.
