Thanks. ALDC, Britain Elects and Con Home all had the Labour vote as 234. But double checking Cambridge News and East Anglian Daily Times have it as 284. |

Stratford-on-Avon, Studley with Sambourne
Sorry to be Mr. Nitpick, but the total should be 1,142. Percentages unaffected, so just a typo.
I'm a longtime lurker here, but I've only recently created an account. Please let me know if these corrections are inappropriate or if there is a better way to pass them on.

The Labour vote was initially said to have been 256 but later last night changed to 156. I corrected all figures apart from the total votes which has now been amended. |
