New Audio Ballot Paper

Ballot Box

Ballot Box

A new audio ballot paper has been introduced for next month’s Senedd election. It will help support blind or partially sighted voters by offering an audio version of all parties and their candidates on the ballot paper.

The audio description for the Bangor Conwy Môn constituency is available on the Senedd Cymru Election page of Conwy County Borough Council’s website to help those with postal votes.

The new audio ballot paper will also be available at polling stations in the Bangor Conwy Môn constituency for the vote on Thursday 7 May.  

Voters will be able to scan a QR code, with help from polling staff, which takes the voter to a bespoke audio description of all parties and candidates standing for election in Bangor Conwy Môn constituency.

The audio recording is used in conjunction with the ballot paper overlay, and the voter hears which party is lined up with which numbered box and navigate to the correct box using the embossed and braille numbers alongside them.

If someone isn’t able to use the digital option, polling station staff will be available to assist and can read the ballot paper out to voters.

The audio description for the Bangor Conwy Môn constituency is available to listen to in advance of polling day on the Senedd Cymru Election page of Conwy County Borough Council’s website.
