Election candidate who got no votes demands recount because he picked himself
Paul Dennis, who stood for the Trade Union and Socialist Coalition in
Rainham North, Kent, insisted the result was wrong because he had
definitely”voted for himself.
Mr Dennis, a train conductor, said his wife and father had pledged their
support too, The Mirror reported.
The 45-year-old was left humiliated when the room burst into laughter
after his result was read out at the Medway Council elections on May 7.
He said this week that the result was “obviously wrong”, and that he had
been approached by people who said they voted for him.
“I was gutted to be honest,” he told the newspaper. “It was a bit
humiliating, especially at work.”
There were 8464 votes cast in the ward, with two Conservative candidates
elected, and just 13 voting slips rejected as void.
TUSC spokesman Chas Berry said: “We think it’s impossible for him to
get zero votes. He lives in the ward, as do several members of his family.
“You think, if that was wrong, what else was wrong? The council have some
serious questions to answer.”
Paul Dennis堅持投票的結果有誤，因為他確定投給自己。
Dennis是一個列車長，他說他的老婆和父親也都投給他。四十五歲的他在
五月七號的Medway Council選舉結果揭曉後，羞愧地離開充斥著哄堂大笑的房間。
他說這個結果很明顯的是個錯誤，他還遇到了許多說投給他的人。
