Over 60,000 postal voters in Leeds are being asked to urgently renew their details as the deadline nears. 

Leeds City Council has contacted postal voters twice already, but still thousands must take action or are at risk of having their postal vote option cancelled. 

The deadline is January 31 2026 to complete the renewal. 

Electoral Registration Officer and chief executive of Leeds City Council, Ed Whiting, said: “It is very important postal voters in Leeds who have not yet renewed their details do so as quickly as possible, or they run the risk of having their postal vote option cancelled. The deadline of January 31 is getting ever closer and we want everyone who wants to vote to be able to do so by their preferred method.”

“Leeds has the highest number of registered postal voters of any comparable city in the country, and we thank the more than 90,000 voters who have already responded, but with such a large number still outstanding we really do need people to act on this now.”
