Cheshire East announces Crewe South election candidates

 

An election has been called for the Crewe South ward on Cheshire East Council.

Crewe South residents – are you eligible to vote?

Residents planning to vote in the Crewe South election are reminded that they must be registered by Wednesday, June 1.

Two new councillors will be elected to serve the Crewe South ward on June 16 but the deadline for receipt of applications to register, or to amend or cancel existing postal vote arrangements, is June 1.

New applications to vote by post must also be received by that date. Postal voting packs will be sent out on or around June 3.

Anybody unsure if they are registered to vote can check now by calling Cheshire East Council’s electoral services department on 0300 123 5016.

Polling stations will be open from 7am until 10pm on election day. Registered electors will receive their poll cards shortly, which show the polling station where they can cast their vote.

A total of six candidates will stand for two vacant council seats available in Crewe South.

The Cheshire East elections were held on May 5, but the election for Crewe South was postponed following the death of Councillor Betty Howell.

The candidates are as follows:

  • AHMED, Jubeyar CON
  • FLUDE, Dorothy Hilda LAB
  • HOGBEN, Steven William LAB
  • ICKE, Robert John LIB DEM
  • SMITH, Lisa Ellen LIB DEM
  • TURNBULL, Steve, CON

Cheshire East Council Chief Executive, Erika Wenzel, said: “I urge all registered electors in Crewe South to vote, so they can have their say on important matters and issues that affect their lives.”

The election will be held on Thursday, June 16 and the count will take place during the evening at the Municipal Buildings in Crewe.
