Why it is important to vote
This is a unique moment when we can all collectively decide on the future of the European Union. Voting is always important, whether at local, national or European level. It is a great opportunity to express your opinion on the issues you care about.
Use your vote to help change the world you live in
It is easy to forget how many people are affected by the outcome of the European elections. The European Parliament adopts laws that affect everyone: large countries and small communities, powerful corporations and young start-ups, the global sphere and the local.
EU legislation addresses most of people's priorities: the environment, security, migration, social policies, consumer rights, the economy, the rule of law and many more. Today, every major issue at national level also has a European perspective.
Your vote will decide which MEPs will represent you in the drafting of new laws and influence the election of the European Commission. These decisions will shape your daily life and the lives of many others.
Use your vote to tackle the global challenges that surround us
In an increasingly complex, unstable and interconnected world, the European Union is dealing with global challenges that no EU country can successfully tackle alone. Tackling the many challenges we face is not an easy task, and voting is how you can influence the direction we take.
Use your vote to support democracy
Democracy should never be taken for granted. It is a collective achievement and a collective responsibility in which we all have a role to play.
Democracy starts with the people: it is we who initiate the process by voting in European elections and the decisions taken there will affect our lives. If we do not participate, we have no chance to shape the future; but beyond that, European parliamentary democracy loses its strength and its values lose their meaning.
The more people vote, the stronger democracy will be.
