FOLLOWING my recent letter to the Gazette, 470 electors found their way to the polling booths to vote for me in the county council elections in the right ward.

While we did not win, we put up a respectable show and, for this, I am extremely grateful.

I hope one day to stem the blue tide but for now I will congratulate Cllr Stephen Davies on his win.
