An interim review of polling districts and polling places

Polling District

In Scotland, a polling district is a geographical area created by the sub-division of an electoral ward. The electoral ward must be divided into two or more polling districts unless there are special circumstances. In Falkirk, there are currently 9 electoral wards (Bo'ness & Blackness, Grangemouth, Denny & Banknock, Carse, Kinnaird & Tryst, Bonnybridge & Larbert, Falkirk North, Falkirk South, Lower Braes, Upper Braes) with each electoral ward divided into several polling districts.

Polling Place

A polling place is the building or area within a polling district where you will go to vote. A polling place must be accessible to all electors.

Polling Station

A polling station is the room or space in the building where voting takes place.
