I lost
Sadly I have not won the election that I was contesting. I ended up with 175 votes which allowed me to beat the Conservative and Lib Dem candidates. The ward looks like it is a good area to focus to get a councillor. If all goes well maybe next time I will be councillor.

ReplyDeleteWell, you could give out a little more info! rather than "I lost", which is a bit short for an aspiring politician.
What % of the vote did you get?
About 3%.
ReplyDeleteWell done for trying. I was dissapointed with the final results overall, but that just reflects how high our expectations have risen over recent times. 175 votes and beating the Conservatives and LibDems is a great result first time round. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteYDKM: Good luck next time
ReplyDeleteNobby is right. We were all pleased with the result.
ReplyDeleteIt's a case of working the ward and continuing to stand.
(Having helped in leafleting YDKM's ward, I think I can speak for all involved that it is the hardest ward to cover locally.)
Our best result locally was 17%. This candidate got 6-7% of the vote last time round.
The ward was again targetted hard and he may well get elected next time.
I've been mening to ask - what do you think of Le Penn?
ReplyDelete3% eh? That's 3% more than I got.
I think it's a pity he lost. he does seem to have sold out on some issues and has allied himself with the youths of the suburbs who did the rioting.
ReplyDeleteI don't know enough of why they would vote for him. Maybe they are both anti-semitic?
owned
ReplyDeleteYeah I certainly am owned. I did no leafletting at all and I beat the conservative candidate and all three lib dem candidates. Hardly owned. Imagine what would have happened if I did a bit of leafletting? I probably wouldn't have won but I would have got more votes.
ReplyDeleteWho cares anyway? I was a paper candidate. I wasn't expected to win.
Well done you, not only for standing but as you have pointed out, Beating the majority of the established parties.
ReplyDeleteI shouldn't be relying on people on forums to tell me what percentages I got because I just did the calcs and it turns out I received 8.68% of the vote.
ReplyDeleteLOSER
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAHAHA
why didn't you do any leafleting? couldn't you be arsed? wouldn't make a very good counciller would you? Or is it cos you'd actually be ashamed of being seen sticking aload of facist shit through peoples letterboxes?
ReplyDeletethe reasons were:
ReplyDelete1. The BNP have limited resoures
2. I was a paper candidate
3. Seeing as I was a paper candidate and seeing as we have limited resources it wouldn't have been a good idea to leaflet a ward that wasn't a target ward
4. The ward is too spread out.
