Seventeen per cent of electorate not eligible to vote
An Island advocate says 17% of the Manx electorate won't be able to vote in Thursday's general election - because they're not registered.
Although registration is technically compulsory, it's up to residents to complete and return their own forms - Mr Wright says the Island should aim for a higher figure.
Mr Wright has recommended online registration as way to ensure all those entitled to vote, do so.
He told Manx Radio it's an area he's been concerned about for some time:
