Yorkshire 'Wide open' for election
The Yorkshire Evening Post report today that our region is 'wide open' as we enter the election year.
In stark contrast to previous election years, 47% of voters in West Yorkshire do not know who they would vote for if the election was held tomorrow, making reports of a foregone conclusion at the polls appear inaccurate.
Rachel said 'The YEP survey results that people haven't yet made up their minds shows that voters are taking those issues seriously and deciding how to use their vote.'
'Voters are looking at the substance of what each party is offering, rather than glossy soundbites brushed over the reality. From rescuing the banking system, supporting businesses and families and providing support to keep people in work and in their homes, Gordon Brown has made the right decisions to protect our economy and ensure that it emerges from recession stronger than before. The choice at the election is not just about personalities or management styles it is about the issues that affect us all – in Leeds West and across the country.’
