The fuckwit managed to lose nearly 50% of the Labour vote from the previous election.

That take some doing  

He only got about the same amount of votes as the BNP and Mebyon Kernow candidates added together! That's a bunch of racist knuckle-draggers and lunatics who want Cornwall cut adrift from Devon and carrots accepted as legal tender.

Way to go Jameson

Once upon a time there was a Labour vote here, based on the industrial communities of the clay country to the north of St Austell. That was long ago lost to the Penhaligon effect back in the 1970s. There’s little sign that Labour’s unimpressive Lee Jameson will win it back. Jameson seems keener on mourning an obscure football team in a Devonian city or helping the hapless Jude Robinson in Camborne and Redruth than campaigning in St Austell and Newquay. What’s left of the Labour vote is soft but where will it head?

The figures say a drop of 6.6% actually....but hey don't let the facts get in the way of a good story.

I'm surprised he got that many.....doesn't do that well on PASALB.

He polled 7.2 % of the total vote.

In 2005 the labour candidate polled 13.8% of the total vote. TOTAL being the key.

Therefore almost half ( that's 50%) of the people who voted Labour in 2005, failed to do so in 2010.

 

It'll be interesting to see how many votes Tudor Evans has managed to lose the Labour Party with his HHP maneuvering and the planning shenanigans. I've voted Labour all my life - sometimes with a sigh - especially in more recent times - but I've hung in there. All I can say is never again will my cross go in that box. This whole thing has been the final nail in the coffin for me.

3386 votes....down by 6.6% from last time = 3386x106.6= 3609.

You cannot half a %age and come up with a total....you can only match votes then and now and then workout a percentage ?

Trouble is my maths were learnt with a slate & chalk....just replaced the abacus, so if i'm wrong that's my excuse.

In terms of share of the vote jameson was almost half the total of his predecessor then ZYPH.

He's still a feckin moron who has more chance of winning miss world than becoming an MP.

Miss World hasn't fallen that low I hope.
