Just got my pack through from Wiltshire Council giving me candidate informaton for the unitary elections on June 4th. Some facts and figures for you:
6 candidates contesting my ward of Box & Colerne
3,835 electors
£791.75 is the amount I'm allowed to spend
4%: usual Green vote
11%: potential Green vote because of some Parliamentary difficulties you might have heard about (and I hope to get a lot more than that having knocked on hundreds of doors over the last month)
9am on June 5th: start of verification process of the ballot in Chippenham.
1pm (approx): actual start of count and of nail biting.
98: number of wards to declare and councillors to elect on that day.
10th: my wedding anniversary on the same day.
12: number of Green Party posters up in the village.
0: number of posters and canvassers from other parties I have seen out and about.
