This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Explain why voters were denied their right to vote.
Postal voters being denied their right to vote for dubious reasons.
Not received in time etc.
Many hand delivered their forms to the offices concerned others posted them well ahead of the deadline.
More details
From the "Application to vote by post" information form, which I note had no official form number or identification method, the cut off date is stated as 5pm, 11 working days before the referendum. That makes the cut off date the 8th or possibly 9th, as was generally claimed in the media.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The conduct of elections is the responsibility of local councils and the Electoral Commission.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
