  WHEN AND WHERE TO VOTE?

 
Please vote only at the polling station that has been assigned to you to vote at.  
     
Your poll card will give you the location of the polling station you are assigned to vote at an election.  
     
REMEMBER : YOU CAN ONLY VOTE ONCE AT AN ELECTION  
     
  Voting Within Singapore
You will be assigned to vote at the local Polling Station that is closest to your address in the registers of electors.

Polling Stations in Singapore are usually located within schools, community centres or void decks in public housing estates. The addresses of all polling stations for an election in a constituency will be available in this website immediately after the Nomination Day for that election.

Polling Stations in Singapore will normally be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Polling Day for you to cast your vote. You can go to your assigned Polling Station at any time during those hours to cast your vote – you need not rush to vote. From our experience, the queues and hence waiting time for a voter to cast his or her vote tend to be longest in the morning.
 
     
  Voting Overseas
When you register to vote overseas, you will be assigned by the Registration Officer to vote at one of the overseas polling stations located within Singapore's High Commissions, Embassies or Consulates.

Not all of Singapore's High Commissions, Embassies or Consulates have been designated as polling stations as many do not have the necessary security and/or numbers of personnel to conduct an election overseas.
