Anyone who believes people voted for their local candidate rather than a party leader... Wibble Send a noteboard - 11/05/2010 09:34:02 PM
Cameron as PM. Who voted for him to be PM?


36-37% of the population. More people than voted for anyone else. ;)

Huh, here I thought Cameron got just below 34 000 votes.


...is deluded. I can guarantee you the majority of voters didn't know the name of their candidate until they got their voting slip and saw it next to the party the vote for. Hence the desperate need for UK electoral reform.
