Wrong name is latest vote error
Tuesday 8th April 2008, 2:29PM BST.
A 72-YEAR-OLD man will not be voting after he discovered his name had been changed on the electoral roll.
Tony Simon recently started receiving manifestos for Andrew Simon and says that his conscience will not let him vote despite being advised he still could.
It followed yesterday’s revelation that around 10 voters who had signed up to vote in time online will not be able to because of another error at the Home Department. Mr Simon has lived in the Vale for more than 35 years. In 2004 his address on the roll was wrong so he filled in a form this time to ensure everything was right.
