The Electoral Commission collates and publishes information on allegations of electoral fraud at elections each year. Reports for 2014 - 2017 polls are available on the Electoral Commission website and a report covering polls held in 2018 will be published in due course.<\/p>

<\/p>

The success of the voter ID pilots proves that this is a reasonable and proportionate measure and voters were fully aware of the changes on polling day. The overwhelming majority of electors who turned up to vote did so with the right documents and had confidence in knowing how to cast their vote.<\/p>

The evaluations of the voter ID pilots which include data on the number of people turned away from polling stations can be found at:<\/p>
