Both politicians, along with Magherafelt DUP Councillor Anne Forde, this week encouraged constituents to attend the Electoral registration and ID clinic in Magherafelt to ensure that they have an Electoral ID and are on the electoral register.

The Electoral Office have arranged various registration and ID Clinics throughout Northern Ireland prior to the election to enable people to register to vote and apply for a free electoral identity card.

There will be a clinic coming to The Bridewell Centre, 6 Church Street, Magherafelt next Thursday (February 25) between 4 – 8pm.

If you do not have a passport, driving licence, Translink Senior SmartPass, 60+ SmartPass, War Disabled SmartPass or Blind Person's SmartPass, you will need an electoral card to vote.
