If you can’t vote in person, someone can vote for you. You can tell them who to vote for. This is called a proxy vote.
You can ask anyone to act as your proxy, as long as they are registered to vote and it’s for a type of election they’re allowed to vote in.
You can be a proxy for two domestic electors or two overseas electors at the same election.
