Change of constituency for some voters in Hinckley and Bosworth borough

A poll card or postal vote will state which constituency someone can vote in.

Hinckley and Bosworth Borough residents voting in the general election on Thursday 4 July can now check which parliamentary constituency they are voting in.

Some people in the area will vote in a different constituency during this general election.
  
Following a review of parliamentary boundaries, voters in Groby, Markfield, Stanton Under Bardon, Field Head, Bagworth, Thornton and Ratby wards will now vote for the MP in the newly formed constituency of Mid Leicestershire. 
  
They previously voted in the Bosworth constituency. 

A poll card or postal vote will state which constituency someone can vote in.

Polling stations may be the same as for previous elections. 
 
Bill Cullen, Returning Officer for Hinckley and Bosworth said: “Apart from the constituency you’re voting in, most things should be the same or familiar to voters in Ratby, Groby, Markfield, Bagworth and Thornton.  

“You will still get your poll card in the usual way, and you will most likely visit your usual polling station. Your polling station is shown on your poll card. Everyone needs to remember to bring photo I.D. to the polling station if you’re voting in person.”
