As the Island counts down to Election Day on Sunday 7 June, residents are encouraged to take action now in preparation.
CHECK:
Following the introduction of Automatic Voter Registration, Islanders are reminded that they should check their Voter Status, including their name, address and voting constituency on the Electoral Register via one of two means:
Online: Vote.je has a new online look-up where Islanders can check their Voter Status 24x7. Login verification can be completed using either Yoti or Jersey Me.
Contact your Parish Hall: Islanders can telephone or visit their Parish Hall in person to confirm their registration. Contact details for all the Parish Halls can be found on vote.je/contact-us.
The Automatic Voter Registration system uses Employment, Social Security & Housing records held by the Government of Jersey to populate the Electoral Register, including eligibility to vote. Islanders are encouraged to check their Voter Status to ensure their details are correct, particularly their address as this will impact where they vote and who they can vote for.
Anyone expecting to be on the register who finds that they are not can still join the Supplementary Register up until 12 noon on 28 May to vote on Election Day.
Due to manual changes being made to the register this Friday, Islanders aged 19 or under are advised to please wait until Saturday 23 May before checking their Voter Status or taking any further action.
CHOOSE:
With 92 candidates eager to be elected to the States Assembly, Islanders are encouraged to take the time to research who they will vote for on Sunday 7 June. Depending on their constituency, Islanders can vote for between 12 – 14 candidates in total.
There are lots of ways to learn more about the 2026 Election Candidates:
Read Manifestos Online – candidates’ manifestos are available to read on Vote.je. Contact details are also provided for voters to ask specific questions of the candidates.
Watch Manifesto Videos – 2-minute videos of candidates explaining their views and vision for the Island are available to watch on their individual pages on Vote.je.
Candidate Manifesto Booklets– these were distributed to all Island households last week. If anyone didn’t receive a copy or needs an additional copy, these are available from Parish Halls or the States Greffe, Morier House, Halkett Place, St Helier.
Hustings– 38 husting events are taking place around the Island. All events are live-streamed on the Vote.je YouTube channel and are available to watch back afterwards at your leisure.
Many candidates have also distributed flyers and leaflets and will also be door-knocking to introduce themselves and answer voters’ questions. Voters are recommended to be ready with their questions to help inform their choices when they go to the polls.
