Extend the voter registration period for the European Union Referendum
After the government's website crashed late last night, thousands of people were unable to register to vote.
The deadline should, therefore be extended by 24 hours to facilitate the provision of registration - to those who could not do so because of the government failure.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Parliament agreed yesterday to a law which extended the deadline for registration. You can read the debate in the House of Commons here:
