Election material

We seem to be getting a huge amount of this posted through the door - mostly from the Conservatives, but also the Liberal Democrats. I find it quite annoying - surely the election is not until May 2010? Or is there a by-election I don't know about?

We've just had a by-election over in Westminster, maybe they got lost because they don't get up this way much? Labour held it by the way, with an increased majority.

Patricia McAllister, Labour - 814 votes - 62.6 per cent
Conservative - 211 votes - 16.2 per cent
Green - 152 votes - 11.7 per cent
Lib Dem - 123 votes - 9.5 per cent

Look it maybe because they are going to bring a snap election in March and therefore it is why we are being bombarded.

Councillor Joseph is set to make it interesting as she is a Conservative Councillor and seeking election as such for the first time. Good old Bertha has served us well for years can't see a change of party upsetting that.

As for numbers, you would be surprised how few votes it takes to become a Labour councillor in Stonebridge, locally and we have three Labour Councillors there with not 3000 votes between them.
