FOREIGN residents wishing to vote in Spain’s municipal elections on May 22 have another week to register themselves on the electoral census.
The Spanish Institute of National Statistics (INE) has confirmed that residents will be able to apply to vote between Monday 4 and Monday 11 April.
Residents interested in voting must have already registered with their local town hall and have been on the municipal register before January 31 2011.
Those on the municipal register who have not yet applied must fill out a ‘Reclamacion al censo’ form at their local town hall and present it with original and current photographic identification.
Can you post a link to the INE site where this information is available? I have just returned from my town hall who informed me the date for registration has passed.
Hi Ben – there’s info (in English) on the 2011 Municipal Elections here: http://www.ine.es/en/oficina_censo/elecmun2011/elecmun2011_guia_en.htm
Thanks
