Use Your Vote On The 2nd May
DON’T forget to vote on Thursday 2 May when all 64 seats on Derbyshire County Council will be up for grabs.
No fewer than 266 candidates will fly the flag for 10 political parties as a new council is elected for the first time in four years.
Eligible voters who don’t turn out on polling day will miss their chance to say how £525m is spent each year – excluding schools – on vital services for more than 760,000 local people.
And there is plenty of time to vote because polling stations will be open from 7am to 10pm.
