THE General Election is fast approaching, and we wanted to see what Wrexham and Flintshire residents were thinking ahead of voting day.
The election will take place on July 4, with UK residents set to hit the polling stations to register their votes.
Ahead of the election, we visited Wrexham and Mold to gauge the views of local residents ahead of July 4.
Here is what they had to say:
Tony Dalloway said: "I will be voting.
"The main concerns for me are transport, GP services and housing.
"Transport is shocking, you can't get a GP or dentist appointment and it's so difficult to buy a house. People don't earn enough money to afford the current house prices.
"There's a lack of trust because politicians promise all these things but nothing changes. Their manifesto's should be binding."
Adam Pickerill said that he would not be voting on July 4, due to having no interest in the General Election.
Janet Simon said: "Yes I will be voting as changes need to be made.
"Look at the state of everything, demand for services are ridiculous and people are suffering as a result."
Hannah Williams said "No I'm not going to vote, I've got no real interest in any of it really.
"I don't think anything could make me vote in future no."

Richard Bradley said: "I am going to vote.
"The main concerns I have are regarding the state of the economy, the housing market and defence.
"It's difficult to trust them due to all the controversy that seems to be published all the time."
Megan Edwards said: "I don't think I'll vote, no.
"I'm not that interested and don't really know what's going on with it all to be honest."
Claire Rogers will be voting in the General Election.
Her main concerns were "healthcare, social care and the cost of living crisis".
"I do trust some of our politicians, as they've had a tough time since covid, but they have to start getting things right."
Ryan Griffiths said: "Yes, I'll be voting.
"Biggest issue for me is the cost of everything. All the prices for things are going up, yet salaries aren't, it's a joke.
"No I don't trust them, look at all the stuff that came out in covid, there's always some controversy going on."
