  7. Pilot ID project 'stopped people voting'

    Press Association

    Hundreds of people may have missed out on voting in this year's council elections because of pilot schemes requiring them to prove their identity.

    The Electoral Commission said the trial project saw 2,083 voters refused a ballot paper because they weren't carrying the necessary ID, with up to 758 of them not returning to cast their vote.

    Broxtowe, Derby and North West Leicestershire were three of the 10 areas involved in the pilot.

    Craig Westwood, director of communications, policy and research for the Electoral Commission, said "nearly everyone" in the pilot areas was able to vote and showed the correct ID "without difficulty", but said government needs to "consider carefully the available evidence about the impact of different approaches".

    The move comes after the Conservatives lost their majority on the authority in this month's elections.

    It's the first time in the authority's 10-year history that the Tories haven't been in charge.

    Labour’s Sam Corcoran was supported by a group representing most independent candidates along with the Liberal Democrats.

    Local Democracy Reporting Service

    A dozen complaints have been made to Cumbria Police about this month’s “nasty” local elections.

    Few details have been made public, although the police described the allegations as “minor infringements of electoral legislation”.

    A candidate in the Eden election told the Local Democracy Reporting Service that they attended a police station in Penrith with their election agent and made a formal complaint to police alleging “false statements about candidates, third-party campaigning and election expenses”.

    The source told the Local Democracy Reporting service: “This year’s election was personal, nasty and dragged reputations through the mud.”

    A police spokesman said: “At the moment, each case has been dealt with by way of advice and guidance, reflecting the nature of the infringements.”

    The party's majority was eaten away by Labour, which gained nine seats, and candidates representing hyper-local independent interests.

    Conservatives occupy 34 of the council's 82 seats.

    Wybunbury councillor Janet Clowes will replace Rachel Bailey later this month after she was unanimously elected by her party colleagues at a meeting last night.

    Until Thursday, the authority was Conservative-controlled but the party lost six seats and its majority.

    The Independent Community and Health Concern group gained seats to be the next largest party with nine councillors.

    The council says that group, along with other independents, plus Liberal Democrat and Green councillors, have formed a coalition called the "Progressive Alliance" to run the authority after 22 May.
