Glad to hear your postal vote arrived.

We did get canvassers. One party sent out dozens another not quite so many.
Interestingly I thought candidates had to have a local address. Well, it seems several do not have homes in this constituency.

In our rural area, I haven't seen a single canvasser. There is one poster on a lamppost and another banner that the wind tore down!

We did get our postal vote last Wednesday, the day before we went away but thankfully posted it on Thursday morning.

Shall just have to wait & see what happens here but given we have gale force winds and torrential rain....again, that will delay our results as smaller areas will need a boat to bring the ballot boxes to the town.

We knew of only three election posters in our village, one belonging to the local councillor.

Our neighbour changed parties for this election but has now taken down
their poster :-S

Been and done the right thing today and there were no greeters of any party and no one taking numbers. Is it such a foregone conclusion in this new borough.
Hopefully those in the hall did the right thing. ( right as in correct not right as in right ;-))
