Vote for whoever you want !

I believe some candidates are knocking on doors and asking people to give them a particular number in the vote.
I do not take this approach at all - because I think the voters should be given the information but left in peace to make their own minds up.
I have tried to get around as many houses as possible, with notes through the door, to say who I am and why I want to stand, and what I stand for. I have also given my contact details so folk can get in touch or read this site to find out more.
It is not for me to tell people how to vote, people are perfectly capable of making that decision themselves.

ps. having seen the other candidates in action at the hustings meetings in Orphir and in Kirkwall, I am confident that whichever 4 get in - the ward will be well represented.
They all spoke well and seem to have the interests of the ward at heart.
This is good news for the next 4 years.
If you have any issues that you cant solve, then get the councillors to help, that is what they are there for.
