The by-election will be held on the same day as the parliamentary election also taking place. Voters living within the ward will be given two polling cards – one for the parliamentary election and one to elect a third councillor to represent them on Ealing Council.
People wishing to stand for election will need to declare their candidacy by 4pm on Thursday, 9 April. A Notice of Election has been posted outside Ealing Town Hall and on the council’s website http://www.ealing.gov.uk/downloads/download/3585/notice_of_by-election-northfield_ward
Residents have until Monday, 20 April to register their details in time to vote.
Until recently, every household was asked to register to vote on one form with one adult taking responsibility for returning information for all the eligible people at one address.
