Electoral registration research
Electoral registers
We measure the quality of the electoral registers in the UK. Accuracy means we look at the number of false entries on the electoral registers and completeness means measuring whether those eligible to register are on the registers.
Analysis of electoral registration data
Our analysis looks at key data relating to entries on the electoral registers, such as the number of entries, attainers, additions and deletions. It also looks at the results of the annual canvass activities that electoral registration officers at local councils carry out each year. It is updated annually in Spring every year.
Other data and evaluation relating to electoral registration
