Question 5.4-030

Which two of the following groups of adults are eligible to vote in all UK elections?

Correct Answers

UK-born and naturalised adult citizens
Citizens of the Commonwealth who are resident in the UK

Explanation

In the Life in the UK handbook, adults who are British citizens (whether UK-born or naturalised) and qualifying Commonwealth citizens resident in the UK can vote in UK elections. Being born in the UK is not the only route to eligibility, and US citizens do not have general voting rights in UK elections.
