The ballot papers for the Wokingham constituency have been sent out to those who requested to vote via the post in this year's General Election and are due to be pushed through letterboxes later this week.

Residents in the borough are reminded only 56 per cent of those living in Wokingham Borough are part of the Wokingham constituency - the remaining 44 per cent will vote for a Bracknell, Maidenhead or Reading East MP on May 7.

For this reason, postal votes will be sent out in two packs; one for parliamentary and one combined pack for borough/town council elections.
