Elections to West Northamptonshire Council

Elections to West Northamptonshire Council are held every 4 years, with the last election in May 2025.

There is a by-election in the Hackleton and Roade ward on Thursday 7 May 2026. No other areas will be voting on this date.

If you are a British or eligible Irish citizen living abroad who has previously lived in the UK or been registered to vote in the UK, you can register to vote in UK Parliamentary elections.

See more information on The Electoral Commission website.

Service Voters

Registering as service voter means that, even if you are posted abroad, you will be registered at a fixed UK address for 5 years. 

If you are unlikely to be posted overseas or change your address in the next year you can register to vote as usual. See our register to vote page for more information.
