From Morning Report, 7:37 am on 28 July 2020

Enrol early, vote early and vote close to home - that's the advice the Electoral Commission is giving to ensure voting happens safely at this year's general election.

The Covid-19 precautions the commission is put in place will mean venues will be larger to enable social distancing, there'll hand sanitiser available and people will be able to bring their own pens.

Alicia Wright is the Chief Electoral Officer of the Electoral Commission.
