Podcast Number 1 - Andrew Lee discusses Somerset's new constituencies with GFM's Alan Philpott
Is the podcast mono left channel only? Or are my earphones confused?
Hi Andrew. At 24 mins you say the the Green Party came 3rd, got 6000 votes and 10% in the Somerton & Frome by-election in July, but that is not correct, they got 3,944 votes (you are correct about the 10% and 3rd place). Also the Conservatives were 2nd with 10,179 (26%), and Lib Dem Sarah Dyke won with 21,187 votes (54.6%). Turnout was 44%. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somerton_and_Frome_(UK_Parliament_constituency) or https://www.somerset.gov.uk/news/somerton-and-frome-parliamentary-by-election-result/. Thanks.
Apologies. You are correct. That was a confusion with the two previous General Elections. . But yes, as you say this time they got 3,944 votes.
Thanks for getting in touch with the correction.
