Low turnout expected: Holdingham by-election!!

Post Note: t was low turnout but here are the results I I have picked up on the Social network:

 Grenville Jackson was the winning candidate.
Full results were: Grenville Jackson (Sleaford Independent) 140 (43 per cent);
Ken Fernandes (Independent) 57 (18 per cent);
 John Michael Dilks (UK Independence Party) 48 (15 per cent);
Lucille Hagues (Conservative and Unionist Party) 48 (15 per cent);
 Mike Benthall (Labour) 29 (9 per cent

I went to the Jolly Scotchman today to cast my vote: the result will be known by Friday morning. There didn't appear to be many people voting. More candidates waiting the voters than actual voters.

It is a pity if that is how it turns out as there are many issues to be sorted out - in Holdingham and the wider Sleaford District.
