Shouldn't there be a By Election in Bristol East then!?
Posted 25 Oct 2010 by Walaa Idris
First of all let me make it absolutely clear that I am in no way gloating or rubbing salt in Kerry McCarthy’s wounds. But the time is opportune to question a few points regarding the matter of her tweeting the results of the postal votes before polling day. Especially as, at the time she was the official Twitter Tsar of the Labour Party!
Being cautioned by the police is a big deal, but my question is has she been cautioned as Kerry McCarthy the Labour PPC who leaked the postal results before polling day – or as Kerry McCarty the Labour Party official tweeter!?
One might qualify her for a slap on the wrest; the other might not, however, both are a breach of election rules, and therefore should forfeit that election. Her guilt is solid ground for a By Election being called on the bases that results were made known before the end of polling.
So is Bristol East going to have a By Election?
