In 2027, the city of Villefranche-sur-Mer will proceed with a complete overhaul of the electoral lists and send a new voter card to all registered citizens. This initiative aims to ensure the ability to vote in upcoming elections, notably the presidential election scheduled for April 18 and May 2, 2027.
The electoral overhaul is intended to reorganize the lists, remove deregistered voters, and reclassify registered individuals alphabetically with new numbers. It also incorporates changes in the boundaries and locations of polling stations since the previous overhaul.
To vote, one must be French, 18 years old, and registered on an electoral list. The common deadline to register for the first round is Friday, March 12, 2027.
Updating electoral information is crucial to ensure data accuracy and allow every citizen to exercise their voting rights without hindrance. Moving, even within the municipality, or changing contact details requires an update to receive the new voter card.
To report an address change within the municipality, one can use the dedicated online service on service-public.gouv.fr. A proof of residence dated less than 3 months prior and a copy of an ID will be required.
If you have moved to another municipality, you must register on the electoral list of your new town, which will automatically remove you from the Villefranche-sur-Mer electoral list. This process can also be done online.
For those unable to travel, it is possible to grant a proxy. This can be validated at a police station, gendarmerie, consulate, or online via maprocuration.gouv.fr. It is advisable to do this early so the municipality has time to register the proxy.
Every voter can check their registration, polling station, and national voter number on the website elections.interieur.gouv.fr.
