BRIGG BLOG GAVE YOU A FAIR INDICATION OF PUBLIC APATHY ON POLICE COMMISSIONER VOTING

Brigg Blog suggested there was going to be a low turnout for the Humberside Police and Crime Commissioner election. And here are the official figures showing the voters in each area who bothered to exercise their democratic right:
East Riding 23.19%
North Lincs 20.36% 
North East Lincs 16.18%
Hull 15.65%
Overall 19.48% 
Having commented on the relatively few electors seen heading for Brigg's Angel Suite polling station yesterday morning, we later passed the Methodist Church a couple of times and that seemed to be a bit busier.
The overall turnout across Humberside of almost 20 per cent was very much in line with what some experts were predicting.
