Locally Vocal

Available for over a year

Allan Faulds of Ballot Box Scotland joins the team to chat all things local elections. A week before Scotland heads to the polls in the local council elections, the team take a look at the nitty-gritty of the electoral process. What are the main issues driving people to the voting booth, and will turnout be higher or lower than previous years? How are votes calculated, why is it so complicated, and why does it matter that candidates are in alphabetical order?
