Can I given one candidate my 1st, 2nd and 3rd preference votes?
No. Each candidate should only have one number next to their name. Anything else will invalidate your ballot.
Do I have to use all my preferences?
No, you can use as many or as few preferences as you wish. You user numbered preferences from 1 down. Do not mark with an X.
Do I put an X if I’m voting for only one candidate?
No. You should still put a number, anything else risks invalidating your ballot paper.
Does using my second preference harm Jeremy’s chance of winning?
Under the AV voting system your second preferences only come into play if your first preference has been knocked out of the contest. As long as you put Jeremy as your 1st preference, your 2/3/4th preference will not damage his chances.
Who is Jeremy backing for Deputy?
