    So have you put it up to your local candidates, either in writing or verbally?

    Hows it played out thus far?

    The way I see it is I have a wish list of things that I would want to see as a voter and if the local crop or their affiliated party can't get near to at least half of them then I'm voting Indpendent...for change if nothing else!

    I have emailed my local representatives but not one of them has replied yet despite their perpetual leaflet drop into my letterbox on a weekly basis. Seriously folks, if you want a vote you are going to have to bloody well earn it !

    I get better results from writing a letter, shows you are serious.
    And that goes for any serious correspondence, not just contacting a local rep.

    Could be a while before you get a reply to that email. But you should get one in a few days.
    Giving your name and address is important.

    They won't reply to random emails

    I asked in advance would they be willing questions / concerns over email and they came back and said yes...so that was good enough for me. If they wanted a letter they should have said so ;)
