A nationwide voter education and awareness campaign in relation to the use of electronic voting and counting at the 2004 European and local elections will be launched shortly. The campaign, which will run from early February to polling day on 11 June, will include voting instructions and will also seek to encourage people to exercise their vote at the 2004 polls. Information on the PR/STV system will also be available. The cost of the campaign is €5 million including VAT.
