Campaign Resources

Throughout the next few months you will need a lot of resources to help with the administration and organisation of your campaign.

ALDC has produced a library of materials you can download to help you organise your campaign.

Blue and Cream Letters

Hand-addressed blue and cream letters are a key part of any election campaign. But it is a big logistical task making sure they get addressed correctly. You can download some materials below to help you organise your letter-writing:

  • Instructions for addressing blue and cream envelopes
  • Instructions for hand-writing your blue ink letter
  • A guideline for hand-writing your letter

You can order your blue and cream envelopes from Election Workshop here

Polling Day – Telling

Telling helps us run an efficient polling day by eliminating people who have voted from our knock-up lists. Below are a list of resources you can download for your tellers packs:

  • Instructions for Tellers
  • Tellers Rota – with an editable version here
  • A5 Tellers Pads
  • A4 Tellers Pads
  • Electoral Commission Guidance on Telling and a Tellers Do’s and Don’t List

Try to print your tellers pad on a different colour of paper for each polling district in your ward. It will make the data much easier to enter.

Polling Day – Committee Room

Committee Rooms are the thriving hubs of our polling day operation. They can often be very busy and hectic. It’s important to keep a record of everyone who comes to help so you can keep in touch with them throughout the day. You can download a sign-in sheet below (which you should also use for any action day you run in the lead up to polling day). Also below are some legal necessities including Committee Room posters and an Election Office Poster that must be displayed in your Committee Room:

  • Sign In Sheet – editable version here
  • Election Offence Poster
  • Committee Room Poster

Polling Day – The Count

During the verification stage of the count it is important we get tally charts of the votes cast for each party – you can download a template affinity tally sheet file below – this will need to be amended for each ward so the party lists runs in alphabetical order by candidate’s surname:
