In Scotland, electoral registration is handled by bodies serving groups of councils. e.g: http://www.lothian-vjb.gov.uk/ but polling stations are run by the district councils. The contact details we harvest from the EC are specifically related to electoral registration and hence are probably not the best point of contact for a polling station enquiry.

Can we do better?
