Breaking Down Local Elections for Easy Understanding
On Tuesday, September 2nd, at 5:30 PM, an informative event about the upcoming municipal election will take place in the council chamber of the New Town Hall in Dormagen. The city administration, in collaboration with the Coordination, Contact and Consultation Office (KoKoBe) and the Office for Plain Language of the Lebenshilfe in the Rhein-Kreis Neuss, is organising this event to help citizens understand the voting process in simple terms.
The event, themed 'Voting - how does it work?', will be held on the 3rd floor of the New Town Hall, accessible through an entrance in Castell Street next to the 'Rathaus-Galerie' parking garage. It's important to note that during the event, the main entrance of the New Town Hall will be closed, and the entrance to the council chamber will be through a separate entrance in Castell Street.
During the event, experts will explain the voting process, covering topics such as why voting is important, who can be voted for in the municipal election, how to cast a vote correctly, and how postal voting works. After the explanation, participants will have the opportunity to practice voting in a practical way, using a voting booth, ballot box, and sample ballot papers, similar to a real election.
This event is open to all interested citizens, offering a chance for everyone to gain a better understanding of the voting process before the municipal election. So, whether you're a first-time voter or just looking to refresh your knowledge, this event is for you.
The exact address for the New Town Hall is not specified, but it is located in Castell Street, next to the 'Rathaus-Galerie' parking garage. We look forward to seeing you there!
