Hart District Council elections 5th May 2016
The Community Campaign are delighted to report that we held on to the three wards in which we had councillors up for re-election; that is Wendy in Fleet Central, Simon in the Crookham West & Ewshot ward James in Crookham East.
John Bennison was unable to breakthrough in his challenge to win the Fleet West seat back for the Independents. The ward formerly known as Fleet West had previously elected Alan Oliver but now includes Elvetham Heath, which is proving to be a particularly difficult area in which to establish an appreciation of our efforts.
Across Hart District no ward in fact changed hands and therefore the ratio of councillors remains as before, leading to a hung council but with a Tory administration. However without an absolute majority all parties are required to work together and seek a consensus - a state of affairs which we believe delivers fairer results for local residents. For those interested in the detailed results they are available from Hart's web-site. - click.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who helped us with the campaign, delivering leaflets, smiling outside of polling stations, etc. We would also like to thank the wider community for your ongoing support and for trusting us with your vote.
