Residents in Scarborough’s Eastfield division will go to the polls on Thursday, June 19, to elect a new councillor to North Yorkshire Council.
Candidates from six parties are competing in the Eastfield ward by-election where a vacancy arose following the incumbent councillor’s resignation.
Tony Randerson, who had represented the ward for 12 years, announced his immediate departure from North Yorkshire Council for personal reasons last month.
The candidates running for election are:
- Helen Susan Baker, Conservative Party
- Mark Harrison, Liberal Democrats
- Tom Seston, Reform UK
- Hazel Anne Smith, Labour Party
- Kieran Wade, Green Party
- Helen Williams, Social Justice Party
Polls will be open from 7am to 10pm on Thursday, June 19, and residents will have to bring photographic ID to vote.
Two polling stations will be in use at
- The Legacy Studio – Eastfield, Overdale Community Primary School, Ashmead Square
- Church of the Holy Nativity – Eastfield, Westway, Eastfield, Scarborough
Those entitled to vote whose electoral register numbers fall between “SWEA-1 to SWEA-2921” should vote at The Legacy Studio.
Those entitled to vote whose electoral register numbers fall between “SWEB-1 to SWEB-2213” should vote at the Church of the Holy Nativity.
There are many accepted forms of ID, including a UK or Northern Ireland photocard driving licence, full or provisional; a UK passport or a passport issued by the EU, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein, the Isle of Man, or any of the Channel Islands; and some concessionary travel passes, such as an older person’s bus pass or blue badge.
Voters will be able to use expired ID if they are still recognisable from the photo.
The results of the election are expected to be announced late on Thursday evening or early on Friday morning.
