It is to be considered “known to the Office” the voter that he is known personally by at least one of the members of the Officeor who has been admitted to vote on the basis of a regular personal identification document, issued by a public administration.
How to go and vote?
How to go and vote? Usually the polling station it is not far from your home and the advice is to get yourself a nice one walk or in bicycle to avoid having problems parking in case you choose to go and vote by car. In fact, in this event there are often parking problems in the streets adjacent to the premises where the polling stations are located.
Another tip is to use the scooter with an eye on forecast to understand if it’s not raining: this method is still recommended even if it’s cold for those who are equipped against the elements.
- standing
- bicycle
- scooter or motorbike
- Taxi
- car
- Bus
If you want to avoid them parking problems another solution is the taxi. A taxi fare for a limited distance can be less than a fine. Even if on this particular day the police should be more understanding, it is obvious that poorly done or double-row parking creates safe traffic problems.
More advice on how to go and vote is to use the car, but very carefully about where we park. Better away from the polling station where you will certainly be able to find a quiet place where parking is allowed. Other means for those who are far away are the train or plane for which there are also some concessions.
