Register to Vote
Are you registered to vote? Ógra Fianna Fáil believes everyone that is eligible to vote should vote. Your vote is your voice. Put simply No Vote No Voice.
Why vote?
Voting in General Elections is the method by which citizens of a country can express their preference as to who forms the national government. The primary function of members of Oireachtas Éireann is to pass laws which shape the society in which we live.
Who can Vote?
- In order to vote you must be at least 18 years of age on the day the register comes into force (15 February each year).
- Irish citizens can vote in every election and Referenda.
- British citizens may vote at General, European and Local Elections.
- Other EU citizens may vote at European and Local Elections.
- Non – EU citizens can vote at Local Elections only.
Registering is easy...
If your details do not appear on the Register (and are not included at another address) you must complete an application form (RFA2) for inclusion in the supplement to the Register – available for download here.
If you are on the register but have moved address from one Dáil constituency, or local electoral area, to another you must complete an application form (RFA3) - available for download here.
Irish versions of these forms are also available for download – RFA2 or RFA3.
Completed forms should be returned directly by you to your city or county council and must reach the relevant council before the fourteenth day (Sundays, public holidays and Good Friday excluded) before polling day in order to be considered for inclusion in the supplement for a forthcoming election or referendum.
The final register is published on 1st February and comes into force for a year on 15th February.
