Labour will campaign this weekend over claims that millions of people are missing from the electoral register.
The government has brought forward a plan to switch voters from "household" to "individual" registration.
Labour says this will mean a disproportionately high number of its supporters will end up being left off the new rolls.
The Cabinet Office said the new deadline was simply to ensure voting was as fraud free as possible.
However, Labour said the move was a "cynical attempt to rig the system".
Party leader Jeremy Corbyn will speak at a rally in Leicester, addressing students who some claim are most at risk of disenfranchisement.
