polling booth. There you mark your desired list ballot proposal with a cross or otherwise. Then fold the ballot paper so that your mark cannot be seen.
The election officer of the electoral board will then check whether you are listed in the electoral roll, if necessary after you have presented your polling card or ID card on request. If this is the case, you can place your ballot paper in the ballot box. The clerk will then note that you have cast your vote.Requirements
To vote, you must be eligible to vote and be listed in the electoral roll.
