π³οΈ Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of elections? π³οΈ
The Electoral Services team at South Staffordshire Council is hard at work year-round, ensuring our democratic processes run smoothly β from local parish by-elections to General Elections.

They do it all β maintaining the electoral register (currently at 87,000 voters!), organising polling stations, training staff and handling everything in between β even when snap elections throw a curveball! Recently, they’ve adapted to important changes like the introduction of voter photo ID and completed a thorough Polling District Review.
Β
But itβs not just about Election Day β the team is busy all year, verifying postal votes, updating the register and preparing for the next election.
