Many thanks John Reply: I regret I do not have the time today to set all that out. Roughly the Conservative vote was up by about 400 and the Lib Dem vote was down by around 600 compared with Council results last year. They are not comparable with a general Election, as we only contested 8 wards and turnout is always much lower in local elections. 2008 Total Votes cast in Wokingham locals 18317 Conservative 10669 Lib Dem 5216 Others 2432 2005 General in Wokingham Conservative 22174 Lib Dem 14934 Labour 6991 Others 1973 Hello John

With regard to the Wokingham results can you tell me the number of votes for each party received compared with those recorded at the last local election and last general election.
