Re: EU Citizen Voting Rights (4.00 / 6)

i had a similar problem in Paris. Even though i had registered with the appropriate forms i had somehow fallen into the french admin black hole of "missing papers". After complaining at the town hall and then seeing the magistrate I could finally vote.

Luckily i had the time and i live 5 mins from everywhere i had to visit, plus i was extremely motivated to vote after i was initially told (wrongly) that my application to vote had been rejected.

Re: EU Citizen Voting Rights (4.00 / 3)

Thanks for the info. There are at least two cases in France, then, where we know the magistrate validated the vote in spite of non-registration on the appropriate list.
