SOUTHAMPTON residents are set to vote in a ward poll this week.
Polling will take place in the Coxford ward after candidate Graham Galton died in May.
Residents have received polling cards and are encouraged to vote in person at their nearest polling station, with the following sites open between 7am and 10pm on Thursday.
The open sites include Zoe Braithwaite Centre, Fraser Close; Lordswood Community Centre (Small Hall), Sandpiper Road; St Vincent De Paul RC Church (Hall Centre Section), Coxford Road; Lordshill Community Centre (Small Hall), Cromarty Road; Kinloss Court (Communal Lounge), Northolt Gardens; Scout HQ (Main Hall), Aldermoor Road; and Coxford Community Centre (Main Hall), Olive Road.
A government requirement for voters to show photo ID at a polling station will apply.
After Thursday’s election, the three successful candidates will join 48 councillors already elected, completing the council’s make-up of 51 elected members representing 17 wards.
