Please note, there are no local elections scheduled for Sandwell in 2025.
This is not because elections have been cancelled in 2025, this is because we hold elections in three out of every four years.
Details of any by-elections (an election that happens if a seat on the council becomes available) will be shared here.
How to vote
To vote in local and general elections, you must register to vote.
You can vote in the following ways:
Voting by post and proxy
You can apply online to vote by post and for some types of proxy vote. You also need to prove your identity when applying, by providing your National Insurance number.
There are limits to how many people a voter can act as a proxy for. This means you can only act as a proxy for two people living in the UK. If you act as a proxy for people living overseas, you can act as proxy for up to four people but only two of these can be based in the UK.
These changes apply to UK Parliament elections, including by-elections and recall petitions, local elections and Police and Crime Commissioner elections.
