Local Elections - scheduled 2nd May

Local Council elections for Bath & North East Somerset are due to be called this month and are scheduled to take place on Thursday 2nd May 2019.  This is your opportunity to vote for the people you want to represent your views on local issues.  There have been some changes made this year, such as the number of Councillors that will cover the whole of Bath and North East Somerset which has been reduced from 65 to 59 and the areas these Councillors cover have also changed.

Tim Ball and Sarah Moore have been selected to stand for election in Twerton and Whiteway Ward, this will now include Haycombe Drive, Rosewarn Close, Blagdon Park and a few houses on Whiteway Road as well as Shophouse Road.




Please remember you have 2 votes in this election and you should use both your votes to elect the candidates you think will continue to work hard for you and represent you on LOCAL issues and LOCAL services.  The Liberal Democrat candidates standing in the South West of Bath have not only carried out a large amount of personal casework, but have all got a considerable amount of issues resolved out in the community. These votes should be about who you think will be there for you.

Make sure you are registered to vote and have your voice heard. The last date for you to register to be able to vote in these elections is Friday 12th April 2019.  You can register on-line  https://www.gov.uk/register-to-vote, or by calling 01225 477333.
