Postal votes

Postal votes have now been sent to our residents - in some cases the North Northamptonshire Council white ballot papers were sent earlier than green town and parish council ballot papers.

We have received enquiries on the differences between the ballot papers for the town and parish councils and North Northamptonshire Council elections - it is correct that there may be different nominees and parties standing in each election
