For municipal elections, neither Spain nor the UK asked me whether I was registered to vote in another member state.

Re: Ireland (none / 0)

Apparently you can vote twice in municipals... (wtf?) At least, the declaration you are not registered to vote elsewhere only applies to the European.

But this does not change the fact that one form (and one register) would be sufficient for the two elections.

Re: Ireland (none / 0)

Well, I have voted twice in municipal elections. But in Spain you have to file a special request if you're registered as voting from abroad and want to vote in the municipal elections in the last Spanish municipality where you were registered.
