I was in a lose lose situation - vote for Pritchard who is anti-Stanley or vote tory.
So I didn't bother :D

They might well recognise if you went twice but they wouldn't know if you got your mates from another ward (or even another town) to pretend to be a neighbour who you knew wasn't voting (such as Anne) and get them to vote for the candidate you want.

Conservatives lost Central to Labour and Labour lost Rishton

Re: Local Elections on Thursday.
 
something surprised me as I was browsing the HBC site for the election results (nothing posted so far) but what did get my attention was the number of candidates standing for election who live outside the election area ....e.g. one candidate for the Milnshaw ward (Accrington) had a Gt. Harwood address and another for Altham ward had an Oswaldtwistle address, would have thought that a candidate for the local council would have been required to live in the ward in which he/she was up for election .... , local democracy and all that stuff
anyone care to comment ... :confused: :confused:






(since its only a local election I dont suppose it would be necessary to import a Hampstead guacamole slurping socialist ):D :D :D

Isn't there some significance to that. Does it mean Hyndburn won't have a non-English speaking Mayor after all ?
