Rejected petition Ensure that Senedd and local council elections take place in May 2021.

The elections have already been cancelled once due to the pandemic. The London mayoral election is taking place in May 2021 if that is viable then so are elections in Wales.

Why was this petition rejected?

There’s already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue, or if the Petitions Committee has considered one in the last year.

Another petition calling for this is already collecting signatures:
Do not delay the May 2021 elections https://petitions.senedd.wales/petitions/244421

The local government elections are scheduled for 2022.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
