Having someone else vote for you (proxy)
Can't come to the polling place yourself November 22, 2023? Then you can have someone else vote for you. This can be done in 2 ways, namely through:
- The proxy on your voting card;
- a written power of attorney certificate.
The person voting may not accept more than 2 proxies per election. The person voting shall cast the vote(s) at the same time as their own vote.
Proxy on your voting card (private proxy)
The information on how to give someone a private authorization can be found here after the voting cards are mailed out.
Written power of attorney
Is a private power of attorney not yet possible? Then arrange for a written power of attorney.
