Anyone aged 18 or over and usually resident in either of Kildare's constituencies, is entitled to be included on the Register.
Kildare's Draft Register of Electors is still open to new entrants, or amendments.
It means people who have turned 18, or who have moved to a new address, since the register can last open, can amend their information.
This Register of Electors will come into effect as the Live Register of Electors February 1th, and will be used at every election and referendum held during the following 12 months.
Anyone aged 18 or over on that date, and usually resident in either of Kildare's constituencies, is entitled to be included on the Register.
