Fears changes to the way we vote will impact our democracy. 

Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith is planning to stop election-day enrolment, ban prisoner voting, and ban free food and entertainment offered near booths.

Goldsmith says the changes will stop the vote count hold ups once poll booths close. 
 
But Labour's justice spokesperson, Duncan Webb told Andrew Dickens says there's many reasons people forget to change enrolment details. 

Webb says every single vote counts and they'd rather have a system where everyone gets a crack.
