Who won what on May 3rd?
|
It has been confirmed that Conservative candidate Richard Tracey has retained his position as
London Assembly Constituency Member for Wandsworth & Merton - his seat is the first of the fourteen seats to be announced.
Though results from elsewhere show Labour making gains across England and Wales, one poll is predicting that Boris Johnson will once again win the battle to be London Mayor, beating bitter rival Ken Livinstone.
The May 3 elections were for the Mayor of London, the 14 Constituency London Assembly Members, and the 11 London-wide Assembly Members.
