Cherwell District Council (CDC) Elections 4 May 2023

Oxford West and Abingdon being mentioned for all the wrong reasons here - https://www.itv.com/news/2023-05-04/widespread-reports-of-people-without-id-being-denied-vote

Some hopeful voters were turned away from polling stations on Thursday because they did not have valid photographic ID, the Electoral Commission said after polls closed in England's local elections.

The agency said its "initial assessment is that overall, the elections were well run” however “some people were regrettably unable to vote” because of the new photo ID requirement.

Earlier, Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran tweeted her concern about "significant numbers" being rejected after learning about people without ID being unable to vote in her Oxford West and Abingdon constituency.

Polling station tellers in Oxfordshire told ITV News "large numbers" were being turned away, reporting that between 10-25% were unable to vote.
 
Tom Beckett elected in Bicester East. He was the green candidate who responded positively to our emails and was dismayed to hear that Middleton and Co were trying to hijack the green party. Definitely someone we need to be in contact with in a positive way, to ensure Middleton doesn't get his claws in!
 
Which wards were the Kidlington/North Oxford FoSB members standing in Banbury?

Edit: Obviously we know Julia Middelton's result.
 
Conservative hold Cropedy, Sibfords and Wroxton on Cherwell District Council which will please folk on here!

It will likely no longer be a Tory run council after all the results are in however.
 
At this rate there may only be two green members elected. Middleton and Beckett. Can we get Beckett on side, or at least ensure he is not turned against the stadium?
