Why are we standing? Is it actually winnable?
We're students. You're students. We believe that students can best represent fellow students at City Hall. Blean Forest (campus) Ward has an electorate of 4,500 - of which 3,200 are students.
Why Labour?
We believe students are too often scapegoated for political gain, whereas locally only the Labour Party are trying to work with students for the benefit of the whole community. Labour treats students with respect.
Can I vote in Canterbury and at home?
Surprisingly, yes you can. In local elections you can legally vote in BOTH your hometown and at university (unless your hometown is already Canterbury!). If you live on Campus (including Parkwood), Tyler Hill or Blean Village - you live in the ward we are contesting, and will see our names on your ballot paper.
When is it? How do I register to vote?
Thursday, 3rd May 2007. There will be a ballot box in the SENATE BUILDING (in front of Library). Polls are open 7am to 10pm. All those campus residents who are entited to vote at this election need not register - The Registry do this for you when you first move in. For those living off campus, the deadline has now passed for any new applications (18th).
