On February 26th 2010 Lancaster and Fleetwood Liberal Democrats committee confirmed Harry Armistead as the party candidate in the up coming Lancaster City Council by-election in the John O’Gaunt Ward.

The election will take place on Thursday 1 April 2010.  In order to vote you must be on the Electoral Roll.  Applications to be included in the Register of Electors for the Ward must be received by 17 March 2010.  This date is also the deadline for applications for new postal and postal proxy votes and amendments to existing postal and postal proxy votes.    Applications for new proxy votes must be received by 5pm on 24 March 2010. However in the case of a medical emergency that occurs after the normal deadline, application may be made up to 5pm on 1 April.

Speaking on Harry’s confirmation a member of the selection panel said:

We are confident that Harry has what it takes to win in this ward.  He has lived in the area for many years, so he is familiar with the issues that affect both the residents and the business owners in the ward.  He is  hard working and committed as evidenced in by his ability to simultaneously serve as the local party’s Campaigns Director, founding and executive member of University of Cumbria’s Liberal Youth and a third year Business Management student.  It is this energy, drive, passion and dedication that is needed on the City Council.
