Police Commisioner Elections : November 2012

[Peter]

Has been something of a farce hasn't it. My Oxfordshire village polling station (electorate 1895) had a pretty low turnout: At 8:45 last night, I was given ballot #78. Naturally I was the only one present. I spent some time with the polling staff chatting and we worked out that it had cost about £3 per vote to run the polling station (just in their wages)

Sussex results are reported by Local Authority (via the Brighton & Hove City Council website). Does anyone know of any others doing so? If so I can make a map..
