Vote by Post – Election 7th June 2026

Islanders can now apply for postal voting in the next election to the States Assembly, which takes place on Sunday, 7 June 2026. Postal voting is an option available to all voters and offers a convenient and flexible way to participate in the democratic process.
Postal voting is a convenient option for voters who may be travelling, have mobility challenges, or prefer the flexibility of voting from the comfort of their own home. Voting by post is a great option for students from Jersey who are studying off-Island and do not want to miss out. It ensures your voice is heard, even if you cannot attend the polling station in person.
