    🚨 The deadline for proxy voting is TODAY at 4pm! 🚨 Easiest form you'll ever fill out. Could be a game-changer if you're a student or registered at more than one address. Just a handful of votes can swing the election if they're cast in the right seats!

    🚨🚨🚨

    Dual citizen w/ a Commonwealth passport? Yes, you can vote BUT you also need to DOUBLE CHECK with your council that they have you registered w/ that nationality. You can only register to vote on 1 nationality. Other rights not affected. It takes 3min over the 📞.
