Ateb
Atebwyd gan Cabinet Minister for Local Government, Housing and Planning (Siân Gwenllian)
There is no evidence of family voting at Senedd or local government elections
The law and guidance on this matter are clear: voters have the right to cast their vote in secret, and no one should be alongside a voter unless they are assisting a voter with a disability. Any observer who has concerns about conduct in a polling station should raise them immediately with polling station staff, ensuring this is done without obstructing the conduct of the election.
