Since announcing in January the intention to host online candidate meetings for the upcoming Isle of Wight council elections, volunteer group IsleVote21 are pleased to report that we have assembled a great team and are confident that the project will be conducted without a hitch.
Mid-April plans
Our target is to have all 39 meetings conducted in mid-April and uploaded to YouTube on 18th April, giving plenty of time for voters to view the meetings and give themselves a better understanding of which candidates best represent their values and aspirations for the Island.
Cockett: A great deal of positive feedback
IsleVote21 founder, Stephen Cockett, says,
“We have received a great deal of positive feedback both from candidates and the public who have been busy submitting questions that will be pitched in the upcoming meetings.”
