    I'm in town. I got mine on Thursday.

    In town(Ballybane) as well.Ours came Thursday and Friday.
    Be glad when the the Polling starts for two reasons.
    1: I can vote FF out.
    2: It'll be an end to the endless stream of pamplets through the letterbox.
    Not a single candidate or canvasser has knocked on our door, but I could wallpaper the entire house in their election literature.

    I'm a first time voter and I registered but everybody in my family got one except me. Jokes aplenty were had at my expense.

    Got one and I really, really shouldn't have. :eek:

    You dont need a polling card to vote.
    As long as your name is on the register and you provide ID at the polinng station, passport/driving license you can vote.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,391 ✭✭✭inisboffin


    In general do they require ID if you have your polling card in hand. Just askin' ;)

    Yes we got ours thursday

    Did your polling cards arrive in the post along with FF pamphlets. Ive been into a few different houses and polling cards came on different days but came with FF leatlets. A brainwashing technique methinks. Stack your polling card away in a safe place with the FF leaflets so that on polling day what you pick up - your voting card and FF material so that the FF names are fresh on the minds of senial people.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,286 ✭✭✭WesternNight


    Yep, got ours yesterday.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,731 ✭✭✭Bullseye1


    I received mine but my surname was spelled incorrectly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Apparently I got mine on Friday but it fell out of the postman's box

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,339 ✭✭✭brembo26


    I got mine as well (Galway city centre). Only thing is I got 2, everything is the same on each card except the number at the very top left :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 190 ✭✭drum!


    Got mine mid-week and in response to another poster, yes you should bring a passport with you to the polling station. I have been asked for it with my polling card in the past.


  • Registered Users Posts: 884 ✭✭✭cats.life


    we didnt get our,s yet. a man from the cco came to our door last september asking if we were on the list. we said no, so off he went with our names in his file. i checked on the county galway website to see if we are on it last night, we are not. :mad: is it to late to let them know .
