Polls for the 2024 General Election close in....
In the 2019 General Election, more people did not vote than voted for any one political party. Had they engaged, they could have had a significant impact on the result.
Younger voices were significantly underrepresented in the result of the last General Election. While less than half of under 25s voted, 74% of over 65s did.
