Election Results

The results of the Wimbledon & Putney Commons Conservators’ election have been received from the Electoral Reform Services for the election of Conservators for Wimbledon and Putney Commons .

The following five candidates were elected:

Diana de Coverly Veale
David Devons
John Horrocks
Norman Plastow MBE
Andrew Simon

There are eight Conservators, three of which are appointed by Government Departments and five are elected by the 63,000 levypayers living within ¾ mile of the Commons. We were slightly disappointed that the voting figures showed that only 21% of levypayers voted. But that was a huge improvement on three years ago when just over 10% of levypayers voted.
