Senator Alice-Mary Higgins speaking on the Forestry (Miscellaneous) Provisions Bill 2020 Second Stage in the Seanad.
Unfortunately, not everyone is currently entitled to a vote in Seanad elections. This is something Senator Higgins has worked to change by co-sponsoring a Seanad Reform Bill which would give all citizens over 18 a Seanad vote.

In the meantime, It is really important that everyone who has a vote to claim it and use it to support progressive and reforming voices. Could you perhaps share this message with family and friends who may be NUI graduates and encourage them to claim their vote before 26th February?
Voter registration forms can be downloaded here http://www.nui.ie/elections/se... or you can phone the NUI on 01 439 2424 to request a form. Completed forms must be emailed to records@nui.ie or posted to NUI head office by 26 February. NUI graduates who are living overseas are also entitled to register to vote and can vote in the next Seanad election from abroad via a postal vote. Finally, if you have moved address in recent years make sure to email records@nui.ie with your current postal address.
