“Voting Time”
Dear Sir,
In today’s Editorial you discuss voting in the Municipal Elections next year. The Municipal elections will only take place in May 2015. On the 25 May 2014 elections will take place for the European Parliament. Given the fact that some 80% of our laws here in Spain start life in the European Parliament these elections are of maximum importance. Of the over 100,000 non-Spanish European citizens here in the Balearic Islands only some 16,300 are on the census to vote in these elections. If you are 18 years of age or more, and registered at your local Town Hall, it will take just a few minutes of your time to go to your local Town Hall and complete the easy registration form requesting the right to vote in these elections. The date limit to register is the 30 January 2014, after which the census will close. As you say in your Editorial, do not just complain, do something positive, register to vote and have your say where it matters. - in the ballot box.
