In regard to education, when there are multiple elections at one time, it can be off-putting for people who are not confident about voting. There might be a referendum, and a European election and a local election, or a general election, all in one day, and referendums can be complicated. Even though the Referendum Commission does excellent work, more needs to be done in this area.
