matty Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Good to see exactly the same names getting back in everywhere - new broom and all that Some I suppose were expected, some others have had a bit more 'competition' than they otherwise might have expected, - at least the voter turnout seems to be up a bit in most cases, shows some of the people are paying attention, and at least trying to make a difference.

Don't forget those percentages are percentages of the lower number of people registered to vote this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 In fariness though, in some constituancies there were too many candidates and the votes were too diluted. Maybe a more tactical approach would have been one strong opponent instead of 2 or 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
