Banffshire and Buchan Coast MSP Stewart Stevenson and Aberdeenshire East MSP Gillian Martin have warned voting is the only way to ensure Scotland’s voice is heard in Europe.
Research published has revealed that an estimated 600,000 Scots who are eligible to vote in this month’s elections have not yet registered.
And unlike the Brexit referendum, EU citizens living in the UK can vote in European parliamentary elections.
To be able to vote in the European Parliament elections, people must be registered to vote by midnight on May 7th.
The elections will take place on May 23rd.
Commenting, Stewart Stevenson MSP and Gillian Martin MSP, said:
“People in Scotland overwhelmingly voted to remain in the European Union - but even many of those who voted to leave have real concerns about the extreme Brexit now being pursued.
“We know that Brexit will harm our economy, cost jobs and hit people's pockets, which is why it’s vital that anyone who has not registered to vote does so as soon as possible.
“Never before have European elections been so important. We need strong SNP voices in Europe to send a clear message that we will not accept a Brexit process which fails to represent Scotland's interests.”
