Wexford County Council has put in place a freephone number for vision-impaired voters to assist them in familiarising themselves with the candidates on the ballot paper for the Local Election on 7th June, 2024. When the public dial 1800 477 478 they will have the opportunity to select their Local Electoral Area.
Once the Local Electoral Area is selected the listener will be provided with a list of candidates in the order in which they appear on the ballot paper.
The intention is that vision-impaired voters can use the freephone facility as often as they wish in the run-up to polling day to familiarise themselves with the arrangements and to firm up their voting intentions.
Those with mobile phones will also be allowed to access the freephone information on polling day in the polling centres if they so choose.
Polling stations will be open from 7.00am to 10.00pm
