File photo dated 06/05/2010 of a voter placing a ballot paper in the ballot box at the polling station at Market Hall in Swadlincote, Derbyshire. PRESS ASSOCIATION Photo. Issue date: Wednesday January 25, 2012. The law should be changed before the next general election to ensure voters queuing at the ballot box cannot be turned away at the close of polls, a cross-party committee of peers urged today. The House of Lords Constitution Committee called for legislation guaranteeing that voters who are at a polling station before 10pm are entitled to cast their ballot. See PA story POLITICS Voting.
